How to keep safe and sound inside FifVANella...
Figuring out how to secure the van from the inside, when I'm inside.
Me trying to do something like
this
:
Except, there's not enough structure behind the "X" so I need to find another connection point for the 2nd eye bolt.
I'll try to do something similar on the rear doors, too.
And I've installed front, rear & side cameras running off the house batteries, so able to see out 360°.
Check out here:
I re-used the door's bolts to attach L-brackets, then used small steel caribeners, and steel turnbuckle. Easily attached, easily removed and will at least slow down someone nefarious trying to access the van from the rear doors.
