Please note that some automobile dealers, depending on the extent of the conversion, will perform vehicle/van conversions by sending them out to a specialty shop, such as in the US, after previously consulting with you and receiving your approval. These specialty shops are fully licensed/insured and are fully qualified to do this type of conversion to meet your needs.
