Thanks everyone for the support & advice. The first step(1) is done, we picked up the van today with all the six new windows installed( $3,000.) On Monday it goes back to the same shop to have the running boards on the drivers side , as well as the passenger & sliding door installed. They will also put rain guards above both the driver & passenger windows. I have also ordered the high top van panel conversion kit (PendaForm) from the same shop($1500 total for step 2) which I will partially put on myself after the sound deadening, insulation & more electrical wiring is put in. I am sorry to say after step 2 is completed, I will be looking for another(shop) others to continue with this project because the glass shop only installs glass along with a few other exterior add - ons. Also next week it will go back to the dealer for a special simonize hard coat sealer & while it's there they will put on the mud guards/side protective moldings which was included in the sale price. I will post pictures after this is all done if I can.

Hi Everyone .. My wife & I recently retired. We wondered if anyone has converted their Cargo High Tops into a Mini camper /motor home ? Ours came loaded ... towing package/ GPS & all the other fancy electronics. We just left the van at a local shop to have all the windows installed on both sides as well as the two rear door. After that we plan on having the inside customized to travel with two cats. We looked at the Roadtrek motor homes but did not need everything they put into them that made them so over priced, really $75K to over $100,000. Even if I have to put another $20,000 into this project to meet our needs we will still only have spent less than $60,00.
