Im in the process of buyiing a T3 multivan, but it doesn't have a pop top.
Ive been looking on line but Im finding it difficult to find places that do roof convertions.
Does anyone know of a reputable company that does them- in particular im after the reimo style with the flat contour.
Cheers Shell

Have you tried Reimo themselves dunno whether they still do a poptop for a t25 though and they aint cheap

I'm in a similar position to you.
I contacted Reimo
http://www.reimo.co.uk/ a few months ago and they quoted ~£2.5k for a pop-top roof.
Seems to tally with prices from O'connors

the only way you'll get a pop top on your tin top with out shellng out nearly the vans' worth is to diy! quite a few on here have done it! you need to fins a van with a pop top at a breakers or see if there is one on ebeay!

I did actually manage to find the O Connars website after - Hmmmm bit more than I was hoping for
Guess Ill just have to get in line and wait for a second hander and hope to god my B/F knows what the hell he's on about

Reckons he could do it cos he used to watch Blue Peter.................
P.S Mick and Tracey, will let you know if I hit upon anything worth checking out.

just spotted this on ebay, they are breaking their van and asking £50 for the pop top, might be worth a look at that price

Cheapest option will be the high top fitted by Timbertech on here, if he still does em. Some pop tops are solid sided, like the Holdsworth Conversions.
