VW pop-tops come in a huge variety of configurations as VW Camper conversions were carried out by a wide range of companies. You’ve probably heard some of the names – Westfalia (‘Westies’) in Germany, Devon (based in Sidmouth UK), Holdsworth, Viking, Palomino, Canterbury and Dormobile.

The picture shows a classic 70’s Devon Moonraker with a bellows pop up camper top in very 70’s colours.

Danbury is still doing conversions, both of new VW Campers built in Brazil and also of other vans. In addition there are a few specialist companies who will add a pop-top to your tin top VW Camper.

Added to the range of conversion companies is the range of models which each company produced and the range of popup variations – front hinge, rear hinge, variants of side hinge with different types of bellows, and pop tops that elevate parallel to the roof. Even these have a range of variants - from straight pop-up to curious boat shapes.

This blog aims to help demystify all this and find VW camper parts and suppliers to help you enjoy your pop up camper trouble-free.
