Can it be done?

This is an OAP trying to equip a van at minimal expense :wink:

I can see plenty VW T4/T5 2nd hand carriers but so far no Bongo ones

Has anybody modified one, and was it much hassle?

I'm a former engine fitter (marine) so cutting metal isn't a problem.

The Max looks the dogs, in fact we had one years ago.
I'm up for a tow bar type but Mrs isn't, thinking access to gas bottle will BA hassle. The video would suggest otherwise.
