Hey everyone - Excited to have joined the Sprinter family last weekend when I picked up a 2019 144" 4x4 Passenger which was actually for sale on the forum. Planning to convert into a camper van for an extended trip this winter and more weekend use in the future. Anyone with previous experience converting the passenger model please reach out and/or follow along because I've already found some unique challenges.
Step #1 - I want to install a MaxxAir fan in the rear to replace the factory rooftop air conditioner. It was a challenge to find someone that would take on the removal task and this unit is different than previous Sprinters. The hole in the roof spans nearly the entire panel between the bracing and will require a transplant panel with a smaller hole in it for the Maxxair. Will update on progress throughout the week and future plans...
