It should only take about 5 minutes to install Van Eye to your vehicle, we have put together an installation video to show how easy it is to install.
You will need to gather a few things together before you begin the installation, here’s a list of things you will need:
- Measuring tape
- Marker pen
- Power drill
- Small steel drill bit (3-5mm)
- Step steel drill bit (4-22mm)
- 20mm spanner
You should also make sure you have all the necessary safety equipment to ensure your own safety whilst fitting the device. We would recommend wearing safety goggles and gloves particularly whilst drilling holes through the van door and whilst positioning the Van Eye device through the cut metal hole in the door panel as the edge of this hole will be very sharp.
