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:
-Driver and Passenger seat base swivels (SwivelsRUs)
-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.
