what model year have you got. My vans are all 03 plus, and I use 4" brown waste pipe, cut the front of the pipe at an angle, put it on the shelfe above the windscreen and fix the other end with bungees/rope. Works for us

Two telescopic shower poles, covered in pipe insulation foam. Can be screwed to ply lining with supplied end cups or sit the on the internal roof ledge and use a bungee to secure.

Simple and they can be removed quickly if ever you need to  ;)

Hm, that sounds good, but most side walls are angled, you wouldn't be able to use the end caps on that would you?

You dont need to put a screw in flush in each hole. It works fine  ;D
