ClimateCore Insulated PODS Sprinter 170 Regular Depth

ClimateCore Insulated PODS Sprinter 170 Regular Depth

Combine travelling in a van with having a great night's sleep! Introducing our latest innovation, the ClimateCore PODS - meticulously designed to provide an outstanding R5 Insulation Value. We understand the dedication our clients put into enhancing the comfort of their vans through insulation. Neglecting to insulate the area where you sleep simply doesn't make sense. It's not only about retaining warmth but also about shielding yourself from the scorching heat of the sun. Don't miss out on this opportunity to elevate your van life experience to a whole new level of coziness and climate control.

Sprinters are measuring 72” window to window and most adults need a few more inches to be able to sleep comfortably. Our fibreglass Pods are a pair of window extensions installed on the rear quarter panels of a Sprinter van, increasing its width. Our insulated Regular Depth Pods will make it possible to build a 77” long bed and at the same time maximize your interior camper space.

The 170 Regular Depth Pod set will give you a 77” (195.5cm) long bed. Both driver and passenger side pods are regular depth. We offer cutout and window installation for an additional cost. 

The exterior surface must be protected from UV rays with bed liner, paint or a vinyl wrap.

The flat exterior surface makes it possible to use windows up to 33" x 15" (83.82 x 38cm). The window cutout can be done using a jigsaw and a fine tooth blade.

* Please note; PODS Sprinter 170 cannot have the AMA Slider Window 40" x 15” installed on them.

The specifically formulated gel coat is use as a sanding substrate for automotive parts that will be subsequently painted.

As this is a customizable item, production timeline is generally 2 weeks.

Handmade in Alberta.

Protection & Colour Options

  • DIY Finish (No Protection)

    Choose this option only if you will be finishing the POD yourself. The Backland ClimateCore PODS must be finished with either paint, vinyl wrap or bed liner. Backland provides all of these options, including a Mercedes colour match.

  • Colour Match Paint

    Choose this option to have your Backland ClimateCore PODS painted to match your Mercedes factory paint. We can also provide custom colours upon request.

    (Note: Because paint changes over time, we cannot guarantee a perfect colour match)

  • Full INDY Protection: Entire Exterior

    Our most popular choice! Choose this option to have our trademark black urethane INDY protective coating applied to the entire exterior of your PODS for a great off-road look. This finish offers unmatched protection, requires very little maintenance, and costs less!

  • Colour Match Paint + Stone INDY Protection

    Choose this option to provide the best protection of your ClimateCore PODS with a beautiful colour match finish. This option includes INDY coating on the front and bottom, protecting the extended surface from rock chips. It is then painted with a colour match paint specially formulated for this application.
