What Metris specific items would you like to see from aftermarket venders? I would like sliding, or T style opening side windows, a 1-2" suspension lift kit, a full width folding bench seat into a bed, and a rear tire holder for larger tire options.
What are you needs and wants?

I like the folding bed idea! I've always wanted a sunroof

 

[Kinjachris]

Rear fold flat bed.
Window that vents for sliding doors

Yep.

I've been communicating with Terra wagon in Oregon. They make some great sprinter accessories. I'm wanting the large side molding that ties into their fender flares. Also a hood bug deflector thing. My wheels are black and I think this will look great. I didn't think I would be doing this stuff to a "van". This van has turned me into a van fan! I did not see that coming. Lol

Also, my van came with mud flaps. They look great.

I agree with Lane about the body side molding and bug deflector and will add a power rear hatch kit.

 

[MERLEANDSARAH]

Who makes the power rear hatch kit? That would be handy.
I would also like bigger side mirrors. Both my 2001 tundra and 2002 Eurovan have great mirrors.
Why put small mirrors on commercial based vehicle.

 

[howvood]

I googled and found a few companies in China and Japan that offer aftermarket power hatch kits but don't seem to offer one for the Vito at this time.

I would love the pop out side vents on the rear side windows (third rose) as offered in europe. Also a folding bed.

 

[RobbMeeX]

Oh man, I need to look into what the conversion takes...

Would love to see a middle console specifically for the Metris, saw some after market online, but not sure if they would even fit.
Would like to see one that comes as high as the fold down arm rest, so could use to eat lunch on my breaks. Any suggestions anyone has found?

Middle console

I plan to use the Dometic CF 11 compressor fridge for a center console.The size is 9 wide 14 high 20 long. It has cupholders on top and a rubberized top suface. Plugs into the 12v cigarette lighter socket. I have been using it in my 2000 Eurovan. I dont have a Metris yet (nexrt week maybe), but I think it will fit. It has a top opening lid.

Larger, more effective mirrors, how about whatever they use for the suspension on the Vito 4x4 overseas?

 

[MERLEANDSARAH]

The Outwell Santa Monica Highway Awning 2015 Touring Collection looks like an awesome way to increase the living space. One more thing added to the list.

Hi all! I've been researching the Metris as my next vehicle. I hope to order by the end of the year because it the best possible vehicle for trips with my large mobility scooter. However, the back seats on the passenger version are not at all comfortable, and I'd like a seat that also a folds down into a bed. After some searching, I managed to find a site which makes custom seats for vans and I think we can make that work. I'd post the link but don't have enough posts here to do so.

Looking for the same. Don't need to post a link to share. Company name should get anyone interested looking in the right place.

Thanks!

Sorry. The error when I tried to post took me a little by surprise. Its more a . com than a regular company name - Shop4Seats If you buy one, please post how it goes. My husband is laid off so it'll be longer than I had hoped before I get my Metris (unless I manage to find a slightly used one with both the uncommon features I need).

Great thank you, this may work well.

I'm going to do sun roof in back to make up for no side venting it will also be nice for camping

Well this is one step close to a VW weekender. Just need fold down rear seats. Face to face seats on the passenger version!!!

New Seating layout: Face-to-Face seating for passenger rows
(delayed availability Q4 2017)
