Volkswagen Transporter Accessories

The Volkswagen Transporter has come a long way since its humble beginnings as a simple panel van. Today, the Transporter is synonymous with style and comfort. Thanks to the popularity of campervan conversions, the Transporter is more popular than ever.

A campervan conversion turns the Transporter into a fully fledged home on wheels, complete with sleeping quarters, a kitchen, and even a bathroom. Of course, not everyone needs or wants all of this kit. The fact you can do what you want with this panel van is why the Transporter remains one of the most versatile vehicles on the market. No matter how you intend to use it, the Transporter is going to make your life a little bit easier.

The Volkswagen Transporter is one of the most iconic vehicles on the road, and it has been beloved by celebrities for decades. In fact, some of the most famous people in the world have owned a Transporter. 

Steve Jobs was known for driving a white VW van during his early days at Apple, and David Bowie owned a bright yellow Transporter during his Ziggy Stardust phase. Even today, the Transporter remains popular with celebrities; in recent years, both Orlando Bloom and Sienna Miller have been spotted driving one. 

VW Transporter Styling Options 

If you really want to stand out from the crowd, you need to add some serious accessories for VW Transporter. You really notice the VW T6.1 vans out there that have been styled. You tend not to notice the vans straight out of the factory! Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Planning your Van Styling Project

If you're the owner of a VW Transporter, you know that your van is more than just a mode of transportation - it's a way of life. And just like any lifestyle, it requires the right accessories to make it complete. From roof racks and cargo boxes to awnings and bike racks, there's an accessory for every need. But with so many options on the market, how do you choose the right one for your Transporter? Here are a few things to keep in mind:

First, consider what you'll be using your Transporter for. If you're an avid adventurer, you'll want to outfit your van with all the gear necessary for a comfortable camping experience. On the other hand, if you're mostly using your Transporter for work or hauling around equipment, your accessory needs will be different. Knowing how you'll use your van will help narrow down your choices.

Next, take into account your budget. There's no need to break the bank when outfitting your Transporter - there are plenty of affordable options on the market. However, if you have your heart set on a particular accessory, be prepared to shell out some cash.

Finally, don't forget to factor in style. After all, your Transporter is a reflection of your personality, so make sure your accessories reflect that! Whether you're looking for function or fashion (or both), there's an accessory out there that's perfect for you and your Transporter.

VW Front Splitter

A front splitter is a really affordable way of improving the look of the front of your Transporter. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for T6 1 front styling. At first glance, the VW Transporter Splitter might not look like much. But this unassuming little device can have a big impact on your drive. 

The Splitter is designed to improve fuel economy by helping your engine run more efficiently. By deflecting air around the engine, the Splitter reduces drag and makes it easier for your car to move through the air. They are fairly easy to install. Here are the basic instructions. 

You will need: 

• Socket set, including a 13mm and 17mm socket and a 6 inch extension
• Rachet
• Phillips screwdriver

Step 1: Park your vehicle on a flat surface and set the parking brake. Place a wheel chock behind the rear tires to prevent the vehicle from rolling while you're working.

Step 2: Remove the bolts that secure the plastic cover over the engine bay using a socket and ratchet. Set the cover aside. 

Step 3: Unscrew the bolts that secure the radiator support bracket to the frame using a socket and ratchet. Set the bracket aside. 

Step 4: Loosen, but do not remove, the bolts that hold the radiator in place using a socket and ratchet. You will need to remove these bolts completely once the splitter is in place.

Step 5: Place the splitter onto the front of the vehicle, lining up the mounting holes with those on the radiator support bracket. 

Step 6: Screw in the bolts that came with your splitter to secure it in place. Once all four bolts are in place, tighten them using a socket and ratchet. 

Step 7: Reattach the radiator support bracket to the frame using the bolts you removed in step 3. Tighten these bolts using a socket and ratchet. 

Finally, replace the plastic cover over the engine bay, making sure to secure it with bolts. And that's it! You've successfully installed your splitter! 

VW Transporter Spoiler 

The VW Transporter Spoiler is a unique add-on that helps to improve the aerodynamics of your vehicle. When installed, it helps to deflect wind upwards and away from the rear of the car, reducing drag and improving fuel efficiency. In addition, the spoiler can also help to improve handling by increasing downforce on the rear axle. 

This simple addition to the roof of theTransporter can help to reduce drag and improve fuel efficiency. Plus, it gives the Transporter a little bit of extra attitude. Whether you're cruising down the highway or parked at your campsite, the VW Transporter Spoiler is sure to turn heads. So if you're looking for a way to add a little style to your ride, don't forget about the power of the spoiler.

Quick guide on installing a spoiler: 

First, you'll need to remove the old spoiler (if there is one) by unscrewing the retaining screws. Once the old spoiler is off, clean the area where the new one will be mounted with alcohol or another suitable cleaner. This will ensure that the new spoiler sticks properly.

Next, align the new spoiler in place and mark the mounting holes with a pencil. Drill pilot holes at these marks, then use screws or bolts to secure the spoiler in place. Finally, seal around the edges of the spoiler to seal it against moisture and dirt.

That's all there is to it! With just a few simple tools and some elbow grease, you can fit a new spoiler to your VW Transporter in no time.

The VW Transporter Swamper Look 

Lots of people are using VW Transporter Styling accessories to turn their panel van into a Swamper Machine. The VW Transporter swamper is a versatile beast of a vehicle that can take on just about any terrain you throw at it. You will need four-wheel drive and high ground clearance to call yourself a real swamper. But it’s really capable of tackling even the roughest terrain. 

Even if you don’t have 4motion, you can still get the Swamper look. This can be done by adding alloy wheels, arch protectors, snorkel and winch. It’s a really exciting way of using Transporter Accessories to turn your van into something totally different.
