Poptup fitting for a t25

Post by uglyboatman »

Bit of a longshot but i have the option of a poptop off a bay, my gut reaction is they wont fit - Im wondering if anyone knows if they can be adapted to fit or is the profile of the t2 way to different to a t25 on top ? (at the moment there is a hightop on) Im thinking maybe if the poptop roof could be shaped to accomdate?

Cheers

the hightop on my t25 is a yorkshire conversions one, never had a name i dont think but it is the larger of the two offered.

The openening in the van roof is from the back of the front cab seats to pretty much the back of the van.

The possible poptop is a devon i think, off a T2 Bay

i would guess not as the t2s are smaller but a devon t25 one would fit nicely!!

Cheers,

Thats what im thinking, with it not bieng made for the t25 it might also look a bit odd sat there too. Might have to look into it more.

I got two choices really now, either put a poptop on the van or look into a donor roof to make it back to a tintop. When i first got the van the hightop was fitted to cover a carved hole in the roof, and was good for carting the band gear around / camping. I can see it would be fantastic for someone who uses it alot for camping, but its my daily driver now so all the permanent space just isnt used. (the poptop idea is just so that room is there if we got away camping).

cheers

A bay roof is totaly different to a t25.
If the roof u have is in good nick (would like to see a photo of its profile)and u are interested i would be willing to exchange for a autosleeper pop top.

Hi,

Thanks for the offer - At the moment the roof (bay) is a possibility so if i go down that road i will give you a bell.

How much would it be for the autosleeper roof without the swap ?

Cheers
