Sleeping up there

Hi,
My high top van conversion has never had any sleeping provision up in the roof.
Has anyone fitted the bed boards up there?
Have seen a few ways of locating/supporting the boards..
Any pointers gratefully received..!

Best way to suggest options is to see various converters ways
Do you have a picture of the roof space inside

OK plenty of high top leisure drive owners here.
I'm sure you'll get some tips.
Generally the converters fit wooden battens to the roof with sykaflex
Then screw a 12mm ply board to them.
The bed is then extended by a second board that slides forward on some sort of runner.
