What could go wrong?

Is this for your LED roof lights?

Is there enough room in a Short Wheel Base for you to stretch out?

Don Ridley is correct. You've already got the entire lower bumper with the lamp housings, right? All you need to do is add the lamps, then wire them? I would just use a fused relay, and connect the coil to the parking lamps. If it were my install, I would also install amber LED H11. As a side note, whenever I've installed aftermarket LED, I always bench test the lamps first. I make sure that the lamps actually work without flickering. And I get an AMP draw reading, so that I can fuse the circuit appropriately. Most of these LED lamps have a very low AMP draw and are low wattage. I've hooked up light bars with a 5A fuse.

Did you ever install the refrigeration unit?

That could easily happen to any one of us.

It comes in "unisex". So you don't have to worry about choosing between men's and women's sizes.

I wouldn't waste a new one.

I've never heard of an "upgrade" to the OEM air conditioning. You can install a rooftop air conditioning unit. Mercedes Sprinters used for touring and camping have them. It would make the van look like you are delivering fish. But you will be comfortable.

Use your imagination. Wrap condoms around the split loom and zip tie them down. Seriously. Nobody will see it. It doesn't have to look good or be heat resistant. The split loom protects your wires. The rubber will stop the sound from the split loom rattling around.

Is that all "Covid shut-down" related? Laid off employees, work volume slows, can't get workers back in, now shop is operating with skeleton crew and work is backing up?

You will have to fabricate your own. Get some foam. Good stuff. I bought some off-brand, generic, imitation tape. I used if for a wiring project on a Harley Davidson. It worked fine. Is that wire, which id dangling, the wire with split loom making noise? You could clip the wire down, so that it doesn't just dangle, and rattle.

Amazon sells things like that.

When I run across that, I go to the dealership parts counter. The counter guy can pull up a parts diagram on his computer. Parts like that are almost never in stock. Then I ask for the part number and the name of the part. I tell him that I will search for the part online, and if I can't find it on my own, then I'll call him and have him order it. If they actually have that part in stock, I buy it. Saves me time. I don't have to search for it, order it, and wait for delivery. I can have the part right away, and do the repair. Lowes and Home Depot have pipe insulation. It comes in different inner diameter sizes for different size pipes. Looking at collinjx's photo, that looks like what it's there for. Insulates the hose for winter, so that the wiper fluid doesn't freeze. On a cigarette break. Maybe you are the first person on the forum who has ever needed to replace that part. So nobody has any idea, and can't help you. I've never had to deal with something like on any car I've ever owned. After you do the job, you'll be the expert. So do us all a favor. Take a bunch of photos, and write up the process. The next guy can refer to you.

See what other people are doing with other models of Ford vehicles. You may find a Foreskin hack.

Most dealerships would also have the special proprietary tools to remove Ford transmission lines. With the quick release tool, those fittings come off in seconds. I suspect that some techs, once the van is on a lift, would remove the driver side front tire and the wheel well. That would give access to the transmission lines.

If you're camping in hot, humid conditions, this could really help with cooling and air circulation.

I don't think eBay has any way to ensure that sellers are sending out legitimate products. Especially since eBay sellers are from all over the world. eBay does have a return policy. If something is sent to you which is not right, you are suppose to be able to return it to the seller. First you have to contact the seller, and negotiate with them about the return. The seller may not accept the return, or try to argue with you about the condition of the merchandise. Then you have other issues where you may have to pay for the return shipping. On Amazon, you can buy from other sellers, or items sold & shipped by Amazon. The return is simple and free. If you are worried about fake parts, then buy all your parts from the dealership parts counter.

Good work. Looks like it's coming right along.

Why didn't you just buy the tires from a tire shop, or a Wal*Mart?

I wouldn't want propane there. You'll have to run plumbing from that space, to whatever you are cooking with. And you'll be taking it out all the time to refill it. So whatever type of enclosure you build, I would guess that there will be flooring and whatever else you install. Imagine taking everything out, to refill the propane. You will really need to think about that. Do you drill holes? Do you cut a piece out and install a louvered vent? Do you install a fan, to ensure airflow? Or do you build a battery box behind the rear wheel well, and install a vented access door like it's a bus or RV? https://videos.etrailer.com/static/images/video/Demo-Valterra-RV-Vents-and-Fans-A10-3300BK.webm

Those work great.
