How to use a Westdubs poptop on a VW campervan

Probably the most fun part of the campervan, the Poptop!
Here I show you how to use the Westdubs Poptop on our VW campervan.
It is brilliant to have this for the extra space but also you cant beat the scenic canvas when waking up to some stunning views!

Thanks for watching the video and I hope you find it useful when you come to use your roof. They are a great bit of kit and nice and simple to operate. Thanks for watching, Ben.

Great vid, just had the westdubs roof fitted yesterday so will be viewing this a few times i reckon. Where did you get that front board from? Thats not standard is it?

[@roxcampers]

Awesome, I am glad you liked the video and hope it helps you with your roof. That’s right, the front board isn’t standard, I made this myself as I felt it finished the roof off well. It hides all the canvas and keeps it away from your head when driving. It also means that you get a full length bed up top as it’s covers the hole, helpful when you are a bit taller :) Thanks Ben.

Great Video. What mattress did you use? I am getting a Westdubs fitted next month.

[@roxcampers]

Thank you. So we used a 5cm double size memory foam mattress topper. The roof is slightly smaller than a double so I trimmed a small amount off one edge so it fitted without touching the sides. The westdubs roof is brilliant, cannot fault it.

Hi top video. Will this mattress fit the Ausops poptop? We have the one without the scissor hinges. Tia. 👍🏻

[@roxcampers]

I’m glad you liked the video. I am afraid I’m not to sure on that one, this is a 5cm topper and the westdubs roof has space for that. I haven’t personally seen a astops up close to see what space is up there when closed. Thanks Ben

@@roxcampers Thanks for getting back.. I'll measure ours in the morning. 👍🏻 We've just got back from Cornwall and have been cooked within an inch of our lives. Then thrown around the campsite by one of the craziest storms I've ever seen.. Tape measure at the ready. Thanks again.. 👍🏻

@@eddt430 The UK weather cant make up its mind right now can it! Another option for you could be something like this (we have this to go on the Rock n Roll bed) www.outdoorworlddirect.co.uk/camping/sleeping/outdoor-revolution-campstar-top-pops-75mm-self-inflating-mat.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwsKqoBhBPEiwALrrqiMDeAvM3b37TAMqnqoODmEIgs3CP_d2TasOTKf5CCYPFsupgmkvUyxoCBe4QAvD_BwE

@@roxcampers Cheers for that. I've still not measured it yet I'll get on the case. Looks like a good piece of kit. 👍🏻

​@@eddt430 Did you get an answer to your question? I looked at an Austops roof today and was told it couldn't have more than a 1inch memory foam mattress. I'd prefer to keep the 2inch / 5cm one up there, so I think I'll go West Dubs.
