Detailed JPEGs of a gutted Westfalia roof (super compressed versions
attached). I have half-meg versions of same if you want the detail,
p-mail.
It doesn't look too tough to cut the second hole for the bed.

Subject: Re: Westy Poptop Installation on a Sunroof Vanagon???

The sunroof model is not ideally suited for the poptop conversion.
People have done it though. The sunroof opening does not quite go far
enough forward to allow normal use of the poptop release handle.

The roof of the passenger models is arched up in the center. This does
not leave enough space for the complete Westy upper bed to fit. The foam
pads, thin as they are, are still too thick to fit between the arched
roof and the poptop.

Mr. Fish, my mail to you keeps bouncing. Post questions to the list if
you need a response.

pop-top on regular vans, space required for complete bed up top....Has
anyone put a pop-top on a sunroof van?  Is the sunroof hole the same
size as the Westy opening?  Can you put a bed up top without making the
opening in the roof larger than a sunroof opening?  Thanks!
