Suitable for campervans based on Volkswagen Transporter T6.1 where the original Volkswagen dashboard configuration matches the product diagram.
Designed for T6.1-based campervans
The Transporter T6.1 is one of Europe’s defining compact campervan platforms. It appears as a factory California, a professionally converted leisure van and a touring vehicle whose living area may be highly individual while the front cabin remains standard Volkswagen. This article focuses on the interface between those two spaces: a cockpit finish designed around the original T6.1 geometry.
The relevant question is not which camper brand is printed on the side of the vehicle. It is whether the vehicle still has the dashboard, centre console, radio or navigation unit, climate-control panel, switches and gear-selector area represented in the VWT61-1933 reference diagram. That is why the product is vehicle-specific rather than universally “for all campervans.”

- Campervan conversions retaining the standard dashboard and console
- Leisure and touring vans that match the supplied geometry
What is included in the 33-piece kit?
Reference VWT61-1933 identifies a 33-piece decorative set. The diagram is the practical starting point for an owner or installer: each outline shows the intended location and the complete sheet should be compared with the physical cockpit before adhesive is exposed.
The coverage is concentrated on visible touch points around the dashboard, air vents, instrument cluster, radio and navigation surround, climate controls, switch banks, centre console, storage surfaces, gear selector and 12V socket. The kit is an overlay system; it is not a replacement dashboard and it does not change the vehicle’s controls or safety equipment.

- Air-vent and instrument-cluster surrounds
- Radio, navigation and climate-control details
- Switch panels, centre console and gear-selector trim
- Storage and 12V socket details shown on the diagram
Thin PU-domed construction
CockpitDekor’s presentation is built around thin, precision-cut overlays that follow the contours of the existing interior. A decorative surface is finished with a transparent high-gloss PU dome, giving the piece a rounded 3D visual edge while preserving the factory dashboard underneath.
That distinction matters in a campervan. Owners can coordinate the driving cabin with cabinetry, upholstery and living-area finishes without dismantling and replacing the complete dashboard. The overlay remains a cosmetic interior upgrade, and the original controls, vents and openings must stay clear.
Finishes for classic and modern conversions
A T6.1 conversion can be warm and traditional, minimal and contemporary, or deliberately technical. Subject to production availability, the same vehicle-specific approach can be specified in finishes such as Dark Burl Wood, Medium Walnut/Burl, Mahogany, African Zebrano, Carbon Fibre, Piano Black, Brushed Aluminium or Storm Grey.
The best choice is usually the one that supports the existing interior story. Wood finishes can echo cabinetry; Piano Black can sit quietly beside dark plastics; Carbon Fibre and Brushed Aluminium can reinforce a sport or modernisation theme. Finish selection does not remove the need to verify geometry.
Installation: compare, dry-fit, then apply
The installation sequence is deliberately cautious. First compare all 33 pieces with the vehicle and identify any difference in radio, climate, switch or console layout. Clean and degrease the mounting surfaces, dry-fit every piece, and check alignment around openings before removing the adhesive liner. Apply progressively and use even pressure across the full surface.
The adhesive system should be allowed to stabilise according to the supplied installation instructions. Do not force a piece into position or trim around a control without confirming that the specific dashboard configuration is the correct one.
- Compare every part with the dashboard diagram
- Clean and degrease the mounting surfaces
- Dry-fit around vents, switches and openings
- Remove backing gradually and press evenly
- Allow the adhesive to stabilise as instructed
Fitment verification before ordering
Volkswagen Transporter equipment levels and conversions can differ even within the same model-year range. Before ordering, compare the actual dashboard with the VWT61-1933 drawing, paying particular attention to the radio/navigation unit, climate-control layout, switch arrangement, storage recesses and gear selector.
If the cockpit does not clearly match, send clear, front-facing photographs to CockpitDekor before ordering. That simple step turns a broad platform reference into a specific fitment decision. Fully integrated motorhome bodies or coachbuilder-modified dashboards require especially careful photo verification.
