Autohomes Kamper - roof hole query

Post by samk »

Hi All,

Do any Autohomes Kamper owners know how large the roof hole is? By this I mean the hole cut into the roof, not the hole inside with all the trim etc.

I'm going to be emoving mine to fit a westy pop top and want to make sure there will be enough tin left round the sides to attach the canvas!

Thanks,

Sam

thanks for the replies.

dj biz, my roof is in no fit state to sell really apart from a few token pounds but you'd be better off sourcing something decent in the first place. You can gt 2nd hand devon roofs or similar for anywhere from £150 - £350. often crop up on here and brickyard. try posting in the wanted section too.
