As the nights are drawing in, and Autumn has come, you might be sitting at home and looking at your VW Transporter thinking, what upgrades do I need to make to my van to get me through Autumn? Well we’ve got you covered. Check out our Top 5 Autumn Essentials below…
1. Mudflaps
The first Autumn 2024 essential has to be mudflaps for your VW Transporter. As the dirt starts to creep in during the Autumn, your paintwork is going to feel the full force of anything that gets thrown up by your tyres. But with our mudflaps, your Transporter’s paintwork will be much more protected against any flying objects, meaning you can still maintain that sleek look of your Transporter all year round.
2. Thermal blinds
Our next Autumn essential is thermal blinds. After having a day out in harsh conditions, being battered by high winds and heavy rain, the last thing you’d want is to come back to a cold Transporter. This is where thermal blinds are your best friend. Thermal blinds create a heat-reflective surface that keeps the warmth in your van, and can be flipped either way round, so you’d also be able to use them in the Summer to keep the warmth out and colder months to keep the heat in, and better yet, the blinds also give you added privacy. All of our thermal blinds are quick and easy to set up, with a simple suction cup system allowing for no time wasted during set-up.
3. Insulation
Insulation is an absolute must if you want to get through the Autumn without any problems. Not only does it soundproof your van, but it also locks a huge amount of heat in. During the Autumn, you start to realise that your Transporter might not be keeping in the most amount of warmth, and therefore, you’ll need insulation to patch up any of the nooks and crannies that might be letting heat out. Insulation is easy to install, thanks to the ‘cut, peel and stick’ fitting process, and can also be coupled with our Sound/Heat Insulation tape to guarantee no seams uncovered. Insulating your Transporter is sure to make it a cozy and inviting vehicle, that stays warm when needed.
4. Dehumidifier Bags
Dehumidifier Bags are a simple, yet amazing essential that you can add to your Transporter. Excess moisture can build up when the rain starts to pile in during the Autumn, and dehumidifier bags are the perfect product to reduce condensation in your Dub. When the bag has absorbed all of the moisture it can, a button on the front will turn from blue to pink, letting you know that you have to recharge it, simply by leaving it to dry in a warm place. When it has recharged, it’ll be as good as new and can be used over and over again. At such a low price, it seems like a no brainer to have this in your Transporter.
5. Detailing kit
If you’re planning on going on lots of trips during the Autumn, then your Transporter is bound to get dirty! With our detailing products that are specifically designed for VW vans, you’ll be able to get that squeaky clean finish to make your Transporter look brand new. The detailing kit gives you a range of different cloths, towels and mitts, so you can lift the dirt off your Dub with minimal effort. Use these with any of your own cleaning products, and your Transporter is guaranteed to look great.
