We did a thing: Installing MaxxFan Deluxe in 2021 VW Crafter!

After months of waiting, we have finally started on our van build. This week’s episode sees us install the MaxxFans into our 2021 Crafter. Both Darryl and Megan were nervous but are so pleased with the outcome. This video takes you through their process of installing, what they figured out along the way, and shows the finished job.
