NOT a VW origin.  Westfalia, an independent camper conversion company, made the pop-top.  They used the pop-top on many different camper conversions beside the VW one.  Check the RVs available in Europe and you will see many different chassid campers with pop-tops.

      Please note that I will be away from my business travelling from December 01 until April 30, 2017.  Parts orders will be processed although not as quickly as usual.  I will always be available for contact by E-mail.  If you phone your call will be addressed by Steven and he will either call you back or advise you to contact me directly by E-mail.  

Cheers,
