Sprinter 170 Wall Panel Templates | DIY Van Conversion (2019+)
Before cutting, please place the templates in your van to confirm proper alignment.
This paper template is currently custom duty free to ship to the U.S from Canada
These full-size paper wall panel templates accurately replicate the wall panels in my own van. You can choose whether or not to trace the window openings, power outlets, or other custom cutouts, depending on your build.
The outer edge of each template precisely follows the factory contours of the van, ensuring an accurate fit. The mounting hole locations are also marked on the templates.
In my build, M5 rivet nuts fit the factory holes perfectly, allowing the panels to be fastened securely with M5 bolts. The design has been optimized to utilize as many factory mounting holes as possible, minimizing the need to drill additional holes and making installation faster and easier.

🔧 How It Works (Simple 5-Step Process)
1. FLATTEN: Unfold your templates and smooth them out. Creases from shipping do not affect the cutting lines or accuracy.
2. ARRANGE & ALIGN: Position the templates on your plywood or paneling material, ensuring the correct side (driver/passenger) and orientation.
3. TRACE: Use a pencil to clearly trace all outlines and critical interior cutouts onto your material.
4. CUT: Use a jigsaw (and drill for holes) to cut along your traced lines.
5. FIT & TRIM: Test-fit the panels in your van. Minor trimming is normal and expected to accommodate insulation thickness and perfect the fit.
Who This Is For
This product is PERFECT for:
DIY Van Builders tackling their own wall paneling.

Important Details & Compatibility
Primary Fit: Mercedes Sprinter 170 (2019+ model years, Left-Hand Drive).
Physical Product Only: You are purchasing a physical, pre-printed template set. No digital files will be sent.
Material Note: Designed for use with standard plywood, FRP, or other sheet paneling materials.
Expect Minor Trimming: Due to insulation thickness, adhesive, and natural van-to-van differences, some final fitting is standard practice. These templates provide the precise foundational layout.
Older Models & RHD: Not tested or guaranteed for older Sprinter 170 models or Right-Hand Drive vans. Significant adjustments may be needed.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Are these digital files or physical templates?
A: 100% Physical. You will receive a package in the mail with pre-printed paper templates. No digital files are included or emailed.
Q: Do the templates include cutouts for wires and sockets?
A: Yes! This is a key feature. The templates mark where to cut openings for the OEM 12V power socket, wiring pass-throughs, water tube channels, and mounting screw holes.
Q: Do I need a CNC or large-format printer?
A: Absolutely not. The templates are already printed at full scale. You only need basic tools: a jigsaw, drill, and a pencil.
Q: The templates arrived folded. Are the creases a problem?
A: No. Flatten the templates before use. The fold lines are for shipping and do not compromise the accuracy of the cutting outlines or interior cutouts.
Q: What if my van's wiring or window layout is different?
A: These templates are based on the standard factory layout for 2019+ Sprinter 170s. Always test-fit and verify cutout locations against your specific van before making final cuts, especially if you have added aftermarket windows.
Q: Can I use these for a Sprinter 144?
A: Not recommended. The Sprinter 170 has a longer wheelbase and different wall dimensions. These templates are specific to the 170 model and will not fit a 144 correctly.
