Re-equipment of the Sprinter van into a passenger van

Sometimes Mercedes Sprinter owners are faced with the need to convert a van from a cargo van to carry passengers. Mercedes Sprinter tuning accessories, the range of which you will find in our section, can also help you with this.

You can contact specialized centers that, for a fee, and not always moderate, will do everything you need, but sometimes it is not possible to immediately pay for such services and then the car owners start re-equipping on their own. This is a rather expensive event, but it is incomparable with payments for the services of service centers.

Range of works

When converting a Mercedes Sprinter van, it is necessary to perform a number of works:

• Soundproofing, thermal insulation and vibration isolation of the cabin, which will eventually become a passenger from a cargo one. It goes without saying that all these types of isolation are necessary to ensure that passengers are comfortable when they use your services;
• Wall and window decoration. The implementation of this stage involves the lining of the walls and the installation of panels. To install windows in the car, you first need to cut openings in the van. Windows are installed with rubber seals, which makes it possible to install glass more rigidly and provide waterproofing. The surface around the newly installed windows is sheathed and covered with panels;
• Production and installation of a two-level ceiling. Necessary for thermal insulation and sound insulation;
• Automotive floor covering. Necessary in order to hide the lower part of the van and create a cozy and beautiful view of the cabin;
• Installation of general lighting and interior lighting. Most often today, LED backlighting is used, as it is the most economical and durable. General lighting is carried out throughout the entire interior of the car;
• Chair installation. Depending on the duration of the intended transportation, seats can be installed either with an adjustable backrest or simple seats.
• Tailoring and installation of blinds on windows. Also an element of aesthetics and atmosphere of the cabin;
• Heater installation.

For long trips

If it is assumed that transportation will be carried out over long distances, then it is also necessary:

• Consider the equipment of a folding table and storage shelves;
• Install the converter from 12 volts to 24;
• You can also install audio or video equipment.

Thus, the conversion of a van for passenger transportation is a rather laborious process, but it is quite feasible on its own.
