From American Camper it went to Beach Auto Sound for stereo
installation. The factory head unit was flashed to enable a fader
from front to rear. An Alpine amplifier was installed along with a
subwoofer, upgraded speakers and the installation of Focal 6x9 inch
speakers in the rear doors. Items installed:
-Alpine 5 Channel Amplifier (PDRV75) - under the passenger
seat.
-Alpine 10" Subwoofer (SWT1052) - under the rear seat closest to
the wall.
-Focal 6 3/4" Component Speakers (PS165FX) - round speakers used as
upgrades to factory.
-Focal 6 x 9 Component Speakers (690AC) - speakers installed in
rear doors.
-Audiomobile 5 Channel Line Driver (LDV5) - i'm not a stereo expert
but i think this integrates the subwoofer to the system and
provides adjustable bass.
The next stop was Grand Prix Auto for the installation of a wheel
and tire package. Wheels: Mandrus Atlas 6 in Matte Black, Size 18 x
8 engineered specifically for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Fitted with
Michelin Defender LTX M/S E-rated LT255/65R-18.
Additional items:

-Queen size cool gel memory foam mattress and fitted sheet.
-Window covers for windshield, driver and passenger and rear
windows (5 total).
This is a wonderfully executed Sprinter Van that was designed for
comfort in the outdoors while still retaining enough cargo space
for sports equipment and other accessories. The space between the
front seats and the middle bench seat is large and allows plenty of
space for standing (fully upright and changing your clothes). The
CR Laurence window and roof fan allow for plenty of air movement to
keep people and pets cool when the Sprinter is parked. This van is
in excellent condition with no damage history, no paintwork a clean
Carfax and no unscheduled dealer visits.
If you attempted to duplicate this van with this level of fit and
finish it would cost about $40,000 in addition to the price of the
van. Additionally, the shops who can perform this level of work
have a massive backlog. You would be waiting up to six months
before they could begin your $40,000 build. This Van is in
excellent condition and is ready to go today for far less than it
cost to build.
