Hi, I'm interested to see what high top options are out there.

I'm not interested in sleeping up top, just getting more storage.

I understand Timber Technicians do a new one which is well received-

I quite like the look of one type of Westfalia high top. This one -

I don't know of this type of roof for sale currently.

If peeps could post pics (exterior and interior) of what they have, with comments, that would be helpful.
TIA
Patrick.

Quite like the look of that, plus it's flat on the top so you can still get a roofrack over it without it looking odd.

Cool link Doug.
I like this one with the front skylight, plus it has a good profile.


not too dissimilar to the Delphi Profi roof.

Just looking at the one with the kayak on, what kind of roof rack is that?
I need one just like it.

at last i have found time to fit the new roof
only took a couple of hours to remove the old pop top then a bit longer to fit the new top. ripped the headlining in the process though."pants" got a new one on order from a local guy who does mini headlinings

I've just been to collect my bus back from Timber Technicians a couple of weeks ago and I really couldn't be happier! Yes, I know it is high (haven't dared measure it yet...), but he really does a top notch job of the interior which gives loads more storage options. The best thing is, I'm 6ft 3ins and I can now stand up to my full height whilst cooking etc. It really opens the bus up! Plus, to counter the extra height, me and a mate lowered the springs on Saturday (just by 40mm) so it looks cool again now anyway!

get some pics up. the one i have would have been hopeless for you as when i stand up my head just clears the roof, i am only 5foot 10

added some stickers

feel like steve mcqueen when driving

Nice addition! Will get some pics of my high top on over the weekend

Have you had bed boards fitted in yours & can you tell me how much height you get between the bed & the roof?

Been considering swapping my pop top for one of these. All depends whether i've sorted the leak once & for all.

I was going to put some pics up to show you, but until I work out how to reduce the file size I'll just tell you. I had the bed boards fitted: The rear portion distance between the roof and board is 44cm and the front portion (the removable bit so you can stand up) is 55cm. I've been up there and can just about stretch out. With the windows in the side as well, it doesn't feel too claustrophic with plenty of room over your head. I've ordered some foam at 2 inch thickness which should be comfortable enough for our three year old boy (he loves it up there!)
