Sprinter Van Front & Rear Ceiling Transition Bracket Kit

Most van builds — DIY and commercial alike — rely on wood firing strips screwed into the roof ribs with self-tappers or wood screws. It works, until it doesn't. Wood rots, fasteners strip, and the next time you need to access something behind a panel you're dealing with single-use hardware that was never meant to come out twice.

Most van builds — DIY and commercial alike — rely on wood firing strips screwed into the roof ribs with self-tappers or wood screws. It works, until it doesn't. Wood rots, fasteners strip, and the next time you need to access something behind a panel you're dealing with single-use hardware that was never meant to come out twice.

Our ceiling kit components were designed from the ground up to replace all of that. It's a fully modular system that installs directly to your van's ceiling structure, providing robust, engineered mounting points for ceiling panels, headliners, and overhead cabinets — all at a lower profile than traditional firing strips so you're not eating into your head or wall room. Every component is secured with machine screws & rivets, which means clean installation, real torque specs, and a ceiling you can actually take apart and put back together without destroying anything. Whether you're running a simple headliner or building out a full overhead cabinet system, this kit gives you the structural foundation to do it right — and the flexibility to change your mind later.

Some Details on the Front & Rear Transition Pieces (including included hardware):

• 13 - M5 Rivnuts & HW to mount the front piece. The slots are big enough vertically and laterally so you can work the curve how you like.  We went with M5 in the front because the factory holes you'll drill out are smaller, and we figure it's always best to remove as little of material as possible. 
• 10 - M6 Rivnuts & HW to mount the rear piece. For the rear it's recommend taking a straight edge and placing it across the closest roof rib and mark with a sharpie in quite a few places to get the curve you need to match since there's nothing really to follow naturally back here. 
• If you are using GoCode Trim pieces in the front you will need to cut down the support a bit. A hacksaw is the preferred way to do this. These brackets work with the Terrawagen front trims (our preference & what they were designed for) no problem.
