Minivan Camper DIY

If you are thinking about a minivan camper conversion in a Honda Odyssey (or any other minivan) it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.  Don’t.

To help get you started, I’ve put together a list of all my van camping DIY articles and videos.  Every post in this list is a DIY minivan conversion project that you can do without any special skills.  I’ve personally done each project and used them in my travels. 

Everything on this page works as-is, but my greater hope is that it will inspire your own ideas and help you to create a minivan camper conversion that works for you!
