One small job that has been bugging the hell out of me that needed doing on the Westy is the skylight lifter assembly that has been broken for the last 6 years. It is kind of embarrassing when you work for a company that sells pretty much every part that is in a Westfalia pop up roof. The screw on the lifter knob had rusted in so I kept putting this worth while fix off. This morning I bit the bullet and took apart the whole skylight system and filmed it so you can all use it as a reference if you ever need to do the same and replace parts. There are a few other snippets on what we are working on right now at CVC HQ so take a look at this latest video from CVC.

I hope this helps,
