I originally got the plan that I modified from the Quebec Westfalia Club, who had it published long, long, long ago.  AND, to boot this was an official WesLast year, I modified it to work inside after seeing the one that Mike Collum had which came from Jonce.  Much easier to put up late at night in a snowstorm.  It was an easy conversion from outside to inside.  So go have a look at my plan, make it yourself or buy it from Jonce whatever, but it WORKS.  We camp in very cold conditions with top popped, sleep upstairs, and have a Propex, You all do know I am the official Propex dealer for CANADA !  Well, there ya go, I guess you gotta learn something new every day !  All this coming to you from the Island of Koh Chang, Thailand, while sipping a cold Chang in the hot summer sun, reading the Vanagon List !
