Transit Custom MK1: a precision template
The Ford Transit Custom MK1 (first generation, 2012–2023) has a roof with well-defined reinforcements that lend themselves perfectly to direct screwing. This ceiling is CNC cut in our Breton workshop to the exact template of the MK1 L1H1 – the short version.
Engraved pre-cuts
The locations for the ceiling light, cable duct, and partition are engraved on the back of the panels. These markers allow for quick and accurate work, whether it's drilling a spotlight hole or marking out the path for a technical duct.
Material: 5 mm poplar
Lightness and ease of work are the two main advantages of poplar for installation in the Transit Custom. Its low density (approximately 3 kg/m² for the 5 mm) does not compromise the vehicle's payload.
Insulation and installation
First, insulate the roof (rock wool recommended for professional vans - good thermal and fire resistance). Position the panels dry, adjust the clearances, screw into the ribs with 3.5×25 mm self-drilling screws. Recommended spacing: 25 cm.
Technical questions
Is this ceiling compatible with the MK1.5 (2018 facelift)? Yes, the facelift did not change the interior dimensions of the roof.
How to manage the transverse reinforcement bar in the middle of the ceiling on some MK1s? The bar can be kept and the ceiling cut to frame it, or removed if it is simply clipped. Check before intervention.
Oiled or raw finish for professional use? A raw finish is recommended if you want to paint or cover the ceiling with a specific material (carpet, PVC, acoustic fabric).

A huge thank you to the whole EXOKIT team! Solenn, the sales rep, was really attentive and responsive. Alan from the design office gave me a 3D view of the conversion before it was even made. And the after-sales support, even from Corsica via WhatsApp, is genuinely appreciated. A company I recommend without hesitation.
