Anyone got any pics or links of before/ after/during etc of replacing bulkhead, or any pics that would help to see how it goes together.
Debating whether to buy a new panel or repair what's there etc etc
Can use an old drop side as it's correct profile to replace lower section but just wanted a few ideas.
Ta.

I have a bulkhead panel that was removed from a Doka that I was considering for my syncro panel van conversion project but never used. Would pictures of it help you?

Charlie...
As you probably know, when I had my repairs done a few years ago I had to replace my bulkhead aka rear cab panel too. Instead of taking it all off down to the bed, the body shop opted to join the new panel to the old as seen here:
Of course you will also need the roof support above:
However, I don't think your taking your roof off. As for the joint at the bed and rear panel level I do not have any pictures of that. Can you post a picture of what is damaged of yours? I have a feeling you need the lower section illustrated.
I will say the quality of the VW Classic Parts panels are the same as original and not too expensive (considering).

| Anybody know where to source a new or used T3 Doka rear cabin bulkhead/panel. Mine has several holes in it and I'd like to just get the portion from where the bulkhead meets the bed up to the window. Don't need above that. |
