5*"I can thoroughly recommend Northshore. Tackling a VW van conversion is daunting but Steve and Mike held our hand throughout the process and made it straightforward and enjoyable. We needed to get the pop top done first and in a short timeframe. Despite major supply chain issues Steve sourced a LWB Reimo pop top for us and then fitted this, the solar panel and roof rails in just a few weeks. Cracking job and they kept us up to date throughout build. Their knowledgeable, friendly manner instilled confidence just give your self time when you visit as they like a blether" .

5*""We have recently collected our new van from Steve and Mike. They have held our hand right through the whole process. Help to spec up the New panel van with the correct upgrades for our requirements to turn it into the camper van we wanted. We are so pleased with the completed van and everyone that has met our new van comments on the quality of work and the excellent finish and their attention to detail. I would highly recommend Northshore Custom Conversions. A very big thank you."

5*"Steve and Mike have been a breath of fresh air to work with. I own a T6 SWB Kombi, twin sliding door and did not want a full conversion. I contacted Steve and from the off, Mike and Steve worked with us to determine our requirements. Now we have a lovely partial conversion, Electrics (including Solar Panel), full lining, Webasto heater with OEM air vents, carbon monoxide detector, new LED strip lights, upgraded LED courtesy lights and fitted Van Shades blinds. Quality of work exceptional has really added value to our van and so pleased with end result. The electrics are all concealed nicely under the seats. Happy to show anyone my van. Can't recommend Steve and Mike highly enough"

5*""Amazing T5 to T5.1 upgrade from Northshore - hard to believe it's the same van! Mike and Steve give me great advice when I turned up for a chat about the spec and were very passionate about using quality parts and doing a top class job. The guys kept me in the loop when parts were ordered, delivered, sprayed and then throughout the fit. Couldn't be happier with the result.."

5*"Having bought a brand new VW van to be converted we were obviously very nervous to just leave it with a random conversion company we knew nothing about. After spending months and months researching different companies out there and checking out their work and what they offered we decided to go with Northshore. Apart from being local we could immediately see the standard of work they do is far superior to any other conversion work we had seen and you can just tell that they really do pride themselves in doing a good job. We had lining, bed, LPS, dashcam, solar panel, flooring and lots more work done.
Steve and Mike kept us informed of the progress, we had regular contact – phone calls, messages and photos throughout the build and everything was completed without any issues. The quality of work is second to none and you can tell allot of thought goes into what they do - what an amazing job I really wouldn’t trust any other company with my van. ANDY TONES (March 10th 2021) |
5*""Been meaning to leave a review for ages so treat this as a two years later review. From start to finish Steve and Mike were excellent. It took us about 18 months to find the right van during which time we scoured the north for the right conversion company. From start to finish their knowledge, expertise and enthusiasm for what they were doing shone through. Always willing to listen and provide solutions to those little idiosynchronises we all have on how we want our pride and joy to be when its converted. Everyone who sees our van still comments on how fantastic the conversion is, even the local VW dealer who services it! Its the attention to detail that shines through; just the little things that make a huge difference. I can't rate these guys highly enough - you wont be disappointed."

5*"Many thanks to Steve and Mike for transforming the family T6. Their passion and attention to detail was amazing.
Nothing was too much for the guys to make sure our first visit and experience to the conversion scene was way above expectation. Highly recommend and we will be back for more!! " STEVE DOWSON (December 7th 2020) |
5*""Fantastic job done by Steve and Mike converting our T6 LWB to a day van. If you are looking for a converter that will work with you to work through your ideas this is the place to go. Super knowledgeable and always willing to help even with the not so run of the mill ideas. If you want a conversion that you will be happy with for years to come, then look up these guys at Northshore Custom Conversions.. Wouldn't trust anyone else with our van and our steady stream of upgrades ."

5*"Just had the pleasure of Steve and Mike at Northshore custom conversions carpeting out, fitting lights, USB ports, speakers and pods, rear seats and curtains to my T5.1, huge thank you!!!!
Brilliant job guys really pleased with all the work completed!!!! Would highly recommend these guys very friendly and professional. Very Happy Customer " WAYNE ROBSON (July 20th 2020) |
5*""Excellent friendly service, went over and beyond to source me a double passenger seat with swivel base for my camper, which was fitted to very high standard.
Highly recommend this company." Andy Morpeth (June 21st 2020) |

5*"These are the guys who will sort out your conversion.
I had lost my way with my T5.1 conversion but they put some love into my van and completed what I wanted. They do the job properly and will not cut corners. Willing to give their time to bounce ideas and options . It has been great experience working with them" NICK HINDER (June 18th 2020) |

5*"" I can’t thank the guys enough for the time, effort and attention to detail. Great communication through the conversion and really listen to what the customer wants, not just trying to sell a few limited options.
If you are looking for a conversion company- look no longer, you’ve found them!!!" TIM HOLLIS (April 28th 2020) |
5*"Looks like something a millionaire would have’. That was the quote from my Mother in law when she first saw the van.
I picked up our van a few weeks ago and wow what a job! It looks beautiful. We gave Mike and Steve a challenging conversion as we requested lots of goodies and at first we had doubts that everything would fit, but Mike with the help of his CAD program managed to get it all to work. Our wanted list was excessive; extra to the standard rib bed/chair, fridge and table, we requested hot water, grey tank, solar panel, lithium battery, sliding flux bed, diesel hotplate, pod tailgate and more. Mike and Steve managed to fit all of these in seamlessly. They redesigned the furniture to accommodate the Flux bed and a specially designed tambour door cupboard enables the driver’s seat to rotate fully. Mike and Steve go well beyond being a VW van conversion company. From the minute you first meet them, their enthusiasm, dedication and attention to detail impress and the outstanding quality of the finished product makes Northshore stand out from the rest. We have ended up with our perfect van. Unfortunately after picking up the van and having planned our first trip, we were put on lockdown due to Covid-19 so have not yet been able to try it out. Although we can only look out of our front window and admire the T6’s beautiful sleek lines as it adorns our drive, I have however sat in it for many hours and yes, tonight, I might even sleep in it."

5*"Thanks to Steve & Mike for finishing our van Stanley! I'm in love! couldn't have got a better conversion. These 2 are the best and spare time to talk things through even if they are busy. Hope to be able to send pictures one the travel ban is lifted...hust using on the drive for now. Thanks for making a life long dream finally come true"

5*"Superb service from Steve and Mike, always there to advise and help with any query. We now have our dream van, sourced and fully converted by the guys. They were so patient when I couldn't make a decision, talking us through all the options, pros and cons, costs etc. We would highly recommend contacting these guys if you're thinking of a van conversion, their knowledge and workmanship is outstanding. Thanks guys"

5*"We recently had out VW transporter converted by NCC. Steve and Mike were exceptional and helped us every step of the way. We visited them a couple of times to discuss options and they were so patient and had loads of great ideas.
They sourced the van for us and in the Spring carried out the work. Very comfortable rib bed, rotating passenger seat, lots of clever storage and lighting and a great wee kitchen. All finished to a very high standard. We live in Scotland and they were great at keeping us up to date and sent pictures of every stage of the work. We are now touring in England and are delighted with the van. Can't recommend these guys highly enough" JILL FORBES (July 20th 2019) |

5*"We spent a long time looking for the right company we felt safe handing our much loved van over to have work on. We met steve & mike at the vdub festival and knew immediately they were the guys we wanted to do the conversion. Their passion and enthusiasm is infectious and the work they have carried out is exceptional. We chose a day van style ,fully insulated, electrics, extra windows, front double swivel seat, better flooring, RIB bed with huge extra storage draws underneath. The solar panel fitted has allowed us to stay off grid for most of our two weeks in the outer Hebrides. NCC’s integrity and eye for detail has made it a joy to work with them to get our dream van on the road. We will definitely be pestering steve & mike again with the rest of the extras we want added!
I’d highly recommend them to anybody else thinking about having work done." MARIE JOBE (June 29th 2019) |
5*"Just got my T6 back after they converted it from a panel van with a Hilo roof already fitted. They installed a uberbus flux aka rib on rails, carpet lined the rear, swivel seats, swell shades, electric hook up and loads of other items for a stage 1 conversion.
The guys have a great attention to detail, provided updated pics during the install and gave great advice when helping to choose the finished product. For anyone who went to Mighty Dub Fest my van was on their stand and thanks to anyone who came to have a chat while I tried to control my two kids 😂. Looking forward to stage 2 and would highly recommend them to everyone!" GRANT BELL (June 24th 2019) |

5*"Had our VW T5 in for a full conversion at Northshore Custom Conversions. Couldn't be happier with the job they've done and their attention to detail.
All bespoke and tailored to what we wanted and needed. It's the work that goes on behind the scenes which gave us the confidence that they were going to fit it out to an extremely high standard." DAVID STORY (August 12th 2018) |

5*"I recently had my van converted to a Kombi by Steve & Mike at Northshore Custom Conversions. From the moment I first made contact I was impressed by their professionalism, knowledge and quality of workmanship. I was confident my van was in good hands and they did a fantastic job. Already got plans for further work. Top notch company. Thanks Steve & Mike."

5*"Just had our T6 converted fully by steve & mike.
Got to say top top top job lads . Your passion from start to finish is top class. Looked around for other options but no other company i went with would give me prices or tackle the things i was asking for . If your after your van converted northshore custom conversions will do a top class fit from start to finish even the electrics that are hidden away is so tidy . All the very best lads for the future northshore is going to be one of the top companies in the uk to get your van developed." STEVE PORRITT (June 5th 2017) |
5*"It's nearly a year since we collected our fully converted T5 from Steve & Mike. Deciding who to trust to do the work on our van and where to spend our £s was not easy... until I found Steve. His amazing approach to customer service was a real change to the complacent and "what you want doesn't fit the type of conversions we do" attitude we received from many of the more well known converters. The excellent service continued while the work was being done by going above and beyond to source parts for us, custom design bits we wanted and supplying regular updates on progress. Collecting the van is a day I will NEVER forget... First impressions were stunning. Closer inspection confirmed the quality of the work WAS stunning. And since then? Well, we don't call our T5 the "Memory Machine" for nothing. The whole family, all of our friends and loads of random people who approach us for a closer look all love it. It's been a great year for us with loads of amazing memories. The design we chose for the van works really well for us and the quality of the work Steve & Mike completed is still clear to see. I would give them more than 5 stars if Facebook allowed it. Thanks guys!"

5*"Absolutely 5 star .... great guys who truly care about providing a fantastic service. All who have seen the carpeting etc (particularly other VW owners/enthusiasts) cannot believe the quality of workmanship which is faultless. Superb job and will most certainly be recommending to others, Many thanks"
TRACEY McCabe (March 21st 2017) |
5*Took my 2005 LHD T5 4motion to Steve and Mike to fit a SCA194 pop up roof.
Couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. The guys kept me informed over the whole process, from ordering the roof to booking a convenient date for the installation, and provided pictures of every phase. Any time I had a question or wanted to know something they promptly replied and gave detailed answers. The quality of their work is absolutely top, and the friendly approach and effort to make the customer feel at home is what everybody wanting their vehicle converted should factor in when deciding who to go with. While I'm sure there are good other places to have a van converted, Northshore Custom Conversions is the only place I'll be taking my van for anything I'll want done in the future - hard to find people that will take the extra steps to turn the difficult and even the impossible to reality :-D Don't look further if you're interested in a conversion tailored to your needs ;-) Thanks again guys!

5*"Where do I start trying to put into words how brilliant these two guys are and how pleased we are with the full conversation on our T6 (supervan) that we have just collected. From our very first meeting Steve and Mike have worked with us to understand exactly what we wanted and made some excellent suggestions and design ideas that have totally transformed our original idea into something we couldn't even have dreamt would be possible. The quality of the workmanship and attention to detail that has gone into each and every part of the conversation has by far exceeded our expectations. They kept us up to date throughout the conversation, often going out of their way to make sure everything was as we wanted it to be. Iv never met such dedicated, genuine, hardworking and honest guys. Would 100% recommend and they deserve more than 5 stars."
