Hi All

Just wondering....thinking about.....maybe doing......putting a pop-top on my caravelle. (somewhere for the kids to sleep)


Has anyone out there done this?

Is it a total pig of a job?

Does roof need strengthening?

Must be very difficult to finish off neatly.

Would you attempt again? :x

I would like to keep my cab sunroof, and would like a low profile model when flat. Does anyone know the type/name/model of pop-top I would need?

Does anyone still make them?

If not, anyone got a good nick one for sale?
