I’m actually not that keen on the design of Jimny from the rear (shock, horror!). The stock lights are a bit bland design wise and I noticed @JimnyStyle posted a picture of their new LED tail lights on Instagram. I thought these would add a nice touch. I’m not affiliated to Jimny Style (nor any…

Front Headrests as a Backrest
With the success of the rear headrests mount project I decided to do the same for the front of the Jimny. This time the mount wouldn’t be permanent, although I do have plans to make it multifunctional. The first project was quite simple and effective so I followed the same design and went ahead and…

Collapsible Table
Making a collapsible table for the Jimny Camper from an Aldi acacia wood chopping board. This was a fun project. Ever since ordering the roof top tent (if it ever arrives) I decided to try and do something cool with the interior space of the Jimny. As you’re able to set the entire space flat…
