20 Innovative Campervan Conversion Kits for Your DIY Van

A campervan conversion kit can make your van life dreams come true faster than you might think is possible. While it could take many months or even years to build out a van on nights and weekends, a campervan conversion kit can get you a camper within weeks.

One easy idea is to install an Adventure Wagon Interior Kit and add on Flatline components like a bed, sink and cabinets.

Nowadays, there are interior kits for all types of vans, including Mercedes Sprinters, Ford Transits and Dodge Promasters.

Here are the best campervan kits for a DIY install we could find.

Adventure Wagon Interior Kits

• Van Type: Mercedes Sprinter and Ford Transit
• Cost: Starting at $13,500
• What They Offer: Full interior kits, including complete wiring harness, insulation, ceiling fan, L-track, wall and ceiling panels, molded trim and wall and ceiling bracers

We had the chance to visit Adventure Wagon just outside Portland, Oregon, and were really impressed by what they offer.

Their high-quality interior kits make your van livable in a few weekends if you’re a DIYer, and a few days if you get the kit installed. If you live or are traveling near Portland, you can take your van right to their facility and Adventure Wagon will install the interior kit in just 5 days.

These camper van conversion kits can be made to fit with the Flarespace bed system, which allows you to sleep sideways.

Or, you can use the Adventure Wagon L-track system to create a van bed that suits you best. This can either be the MOAB bed, which you can raise and lower depending on your needs, or MONK beds, which are bunk beds. You can even install TWO Moab beds to create a queen-bed bunk system.

You can choose between four fabric colors for your interior wall paneling, or order the kit with bare plywood if you want to paint or add your own material.

We think the Adventure Wagon interior kit is a great jumping-off point for van life if you have a Transit or Sprinter. The L-track system lets you add on other products easily, like kitchen units or cabinetry.

Adventure Wagon also sells soft upper cabinets, MOAB beds and MONK beds.

Esplori Lightweight Van Interior Kit

• Van Type: Mercedes Sprinter
• Cost: $13,000-$18,000 depending on DIY or professional install
• What They Offer: Lightweight aluminum panels, fan, reinforced L-track, lights, wiring panel, insulation and soundproofing

The newest campervan conversion kit we’re super excited about is by the van conversion company Esplori, located in Bend, Oregon.

Esplori’s mission is to create lightweight campervan conversions, perfect for off-roading and keeping that gas mileage number down.

These complete campervan interior kits use aluminum and are 40% lighter than using traditional materials. The wall and ceiling panels are powder-coated, which has no which has not VOC off-gas.

Powder-coated aluminum holds up better than carpet or wood in an automotive setting and provides a streamlined look. Aluminum is also super easy to clean.

There are three options for the Esplori aluminum interior kit: A DIY installation, assisted DIY, and a professional install at Esplori headquarters.

This is the first aluminum kit we’ve seen and if you’re looking for a lightweight van build, it’s something to check out.

Flarespace Bed Systems

• Van Type: Mercedes Sprinter, Ford Transit, Ram Promaster, VW Crafter, Nissan NV and Ford E-Series
• Cost: Starting at $2,000
• What They Offer: Fiberglass flares to sleep sideways, trim rings, interior finishing kits, bed systems and interior paneling

The first project we did on our new Sprinter van conversion was adding Flarespace flares to the rear panels. Flarespace flares allow us to sleep sideways, especially important for a smaller van like our 144′ wheelbase.

This campervan conversion kit frees up tons more space inside a van!

You can either DIY the Flarespace install or take it to a custom installer. We chose DIY our project. We took the flares to an auto body shop for paint matching, cut holes in the van and glued in the flares.

We then used the interior trim rings and interior finish kit to round out the look. The Flarespace flare system is a top-notch product that we highly recommend. We couldn’t be happier.

We also installed their Super Fly Weight Bed System, which is incredibly lightweight – one of our main goals for our build. The panels are a little wobbly so we did add some structural support for a firmer bed, but that’s entirely up to you.

We loved the Flarespace van conversion kit and highly recommend it.

Roadloft Conversion Kits

• Van Type: Ford Transits Connect, Nissan NV 200, Dodge Grand Caravan
• Cost: Starting at $CAD 4,790
• What They Offer: Slide-out kitchen drawers, bed systems, dinettes

Roadloft produces high quality minivan conversion kits out of Quebec, Canada. Their van kits fit the Ford Transits Connect, Nissan NV 200, and Dodge Grand Caravan.

Each conversion includes a platform bed and two slide-out kitchen drawers. You can cook out of the rain and sun, as the kitchen fits perfectly under your tailgate. The platform bed can be turned into two benches and a table, which is super helpful on those rainy days when you just want to relax and be cozy. The platform hides a decent amount of storage for gear and water tanks.

The whole camper folds down into a box, which you can store behind the passenger seats, should you need to travel with friends.

The kits are fully removable and can be installed in just five minutes with a single flat screwdriver, which is rad. This means you can use your vehicle as a car whenever you need to, and pop the camper back in when you’re ready for an adventure.

American orders take 2-3 days to process and 15 days to be delivered. Availability of the kits changes based on demand. By the way – Roadloft also make kits for SUVs.

Flatline Van Company Conversion Kits

• Van Type: Mercedes Sprinter, Ford Transits, and Promasters
• Cost: Starting at $2,000
• What They Offer: Kitchen units, cabinetry, bed systems and interior storage solutions like headliners and bins

Flatline Van Company’s goal is to give you a toolkit to help you build out a van yourself using quality products. You can easily mount any of their components in conjunction with the Adventure Wagon interior kit. Or, you can build your own brackets and attachments.

You’ll find 24″ and 48″ van kitchen units , bed systems that go with Flarespace flares or without, storage and wheel well cubbies, cabinetry and headliner shelves.

Flatline compares themselves a little bit to Ikea – where you can pick products that match and create a finished interior.

While many companies struggle with shipping and delays, Flatline is dedicated to keeping its website up to date. If you see the item available online, it is in stock and will be shipped within a few days.

If you’re also looking to upgrade your van’s interior, Flatline also offers a variety of roof racks, awnings and ladders.

We loved touring this van conversion kit company just outside Portland, Oregon and were impressed with their plug-and-play products for campervans.

The kit isn’t cheap, but the price includes the installation by Titan Vans. It will soon be available for DIY installation, too. The guys are putting together a list of approved van builders and a thorough set of instructions.

Titan Vans DIY Kids also produce kitchen units, upper cabinetry, water systems, heating, additional seating and accessories. You can purchase one or more of these and install them yourself. That’s is a much cheaper option than getting the full camper.

We used a couple of products from Titan Vans DIY Kits in our Sprinter van build and they’ve really helped us with our interior. The paper templates for the interior wall panels came in handy, as did the structural assembly for Sprinters, which helped us line up the wall and ceiling panels.

• Cost: $785+
• What They Offer: Interior components, such as kitchen units, bench seats, flooring, overhead storage, wheel well storage cabinets and more

Worried about the wheel wells? Serg Supply manufactures storage that goes around them, which comes complete with a sleeping platform.

Serg Supply also makes modular units you can place wherever you like in your van. Take a look at their universal kitchen galley to go on the driver’s side of your Ford Transit, Ram Promaster, or Mercedes Sprinter. Pick and choose the units to create the perfect campervan floorplan. If you’re still working out what that looks like, you can invest in buying the essentials first and then order more units once you’ve tested your camper.

If you want to take your build even further, Serg Supply sells heating and AC systems, full pre-programmed electrical systems, shower enclosures, and more.

Some DIY skills are needed to install most of their units; however, the alternative would be to build everything from scratch.

What are campervan conversion kits?

Campervan conversion kits are pre-made campers you can install in your van DIY, although a few require a professional installation. They can be as simple as a kitchen box and bed platform you can lash down in the trunk of your truck or full-on conversions with a bed, kitchen, and dinette that require proper installation.

It’s important to know that most kits are compatible with a limited number of vehicles. Make sure you do your research before putting a kit in your shopping cart.

What are campervan conversion kits good for?

They are a great way to get yourself a solid, professionally-made camper without spending a fortune on a custom conversion. The waiting time is often shorter than it is for a full professional conversion, too. Some smaller, less complicated kits can be delivered to your door in a matter of weeks.

You can install most of them DIY and are typically fully removable, which is very handy if you plan to use your vehicle during the week or to resell it. The installation process varies based on the kit. Some don’t require any DIY skills, as they simply strap down to your vehicle.

How much do campervan conversion kits cost?

It varies a lot depending on the number of features and the materials used. The simpler ones can cost as little as a few hundred bucks, while the ones with lots of components can cost up to $25,000. Either way, they are a lot cheaper than an equivalent professional conversion.

If a kit seems costly, stop to think about what quality your DIY build would be and how many times you would need to rebuild stuff that’s not solid enough. Also – do you need to buy any tools? Make a list of everything you’d need to buy in order to create your DIY conversion and compare the final figure with the cost of a similar kit.

What types of components do campervan conversion kits include?

It depends. Kits for bigger vans typically include a bed frame, a kitchen kitchenette, a dinette, overhead cabinets, and a shower. Kits for trucks and minivans often feature just a kitchen box and platform bed. The more expensive the kit, the more components it comes with. You’ll need to find a kit which is the perfect balance between budget and components.

We Hope this Helps you with your DIY Van Build!

Camper van conversion kits are the perfect way to turn your van into a mobile home.

The kits come with everything you need- kitchen units, water systems and wheel well cabinets.

You can choose anything from an expensive interior conversion kit for a Mercedes Sprinter van to a cheaper minivan conversion kit with just a bed frame and pull-out drawers.

These companies offer high-quality kits that can be installed in a campervan in a matter of minutes or days. You won’t have to spend hours and hours watching DIY campervan YouTube videos if you order one of these kits. They’ll help get your campervan on the road even faster so you can start living van life ASAP.

Good luck!
