Would anyone have a similar pic to this but of the opposite side of the van?

I'm planning to mount a reading lamp on the C post but would like to know what's behind the trim and if it's feasible before I start removing trim panels.
Thanks in advance!!

Thanks for that.
I'm hoping I can get away with releasing the window surround by loosening the grab handle and seat belt to feed the wiring behind it, rather than needing to remove it completely as the lower panel is clamped in place by the rear conversion.
I put wiring in place before the conversion was fitted, but was going to use the D post seat belt mounting for the reading lamp. Once I got the van back I realised this was too low and not needed as there's an led downlighter fitted directly over the kitchen. Hence why I want it to go above the C post seat belt mounting (the seat belt that's still fitted in the pic).

Shouldn't be too much of an issue, if you do end up taking the panels off just be weary of the metal clips pinging off and falling down the back of the bottom panels, :roll: its a pain in the ring when that happens, long bendy magnet helps with that. Have fun :D
