On my Kiravan door pocket, I ran a length of 5mm bungee cord across the middle pocket, It keeps everything inside the pocket and prevents any overhanging items pin-striping the van when the door is opened. Simple to do by drilling 2 small holes either end and knotting the bungee in the hole to provide tension. I also carpeted it.

Just watched this again and thought as our bed system is an absolute stonking bit of heavy duty fold away space saving bed I would pass this onto you having seen your bed system. It’s callled a SteeFree bed and is so simple to set up and fold away so you can still use the existing three row seats in the back, the bed itself is brilliant I absolutely love it, having travelled around Europe for over 23 years each year mastering different ways you gotta go take a look at these

I looked at Ovano bed system but decided against it and built my own frame and bed system using B&Q timber and Ikea Sofa bed mattress. Its not beautiful but converts the whole width inc rear seats down into mattress. Much cheaper option utilising lash down points. Im not a tradesman but someone with skills could make it look 300% better. The only down side is that you dont get a movable bulkhead - Within 1 day of getting my van was change the wheels, ABS wheel covers and rear door side covers, Heko and full insulated and soundproofing - Never looked back since
