Welcome Back Campers,
So today is the much awaited POP TOP video........
This video is the full video of what I did start to finish in the hope that if you fancy a go at your own this will help you at least a little.
Now I will say I have never fitted one of these before and I have only fitted this to how I feel is the best way for my skill level and tooling. You may want to do things differently and that's fine but please please only follow this video as a rough guid as you MUST do all your own measurements and planning. This video will hopefully give you the foundation's you need and the rest is up to you.
My advice is only try this if you are fairly confident you can achieve the end results but don't be afraid to ask a more skilled friends for help. This job isn't the hardest job at all..........
I believe it takes as much guts to pull this off as skill so please be very careful and wear all the necessary PPE. So your gloves, eye defence, ear defence etc.
DONT WORK OUTSIDE WITH POWER IF ITS RAINING..........
I would also totally advise that you cover all the van over with sheets. We was very careful with sparks and directed them into the bus for the very little we used a grinder and I trapped them with a fire proof blanket.
BEST OF LUCK...........
WITH A POSITIVE MINDSET AND OUTLOOK YOU CAN ACHIEVE THIS.
Feel free to contact me on Instagram
All my photos I take and work I do I post on my Instagram and you are welcome to join me!

*****PLEASE READ FOR POP TOP SUPPLIER. ****** UNFORTUNATELY DUE TO RECENT COMPLAINTS ABOUT VERY POOR SERVICE AND QUALITY ISSUES WITH THIS ROOF I NO LONGER RECOMMEND PURCHASING THIS POP TOP. SO PLEASE BE CAREFUL IF YOU PURCHASE ONE AS I RECOMMEND NOT TO. JAY

hey Dude this is really helpful. What brand was the pop top? If you are having issues i want to make sure i don't get the same one but didn't hear in the video where you got if from? Cheers

Hey matey. I have checked but can’t find the company now. The chap is called Allan who lives in derby but that’s all I can tell you really. Just look at the kits and you will be able to tell if it’s the same as mine. With the rubbish fibreglass lengths

I like your attention to detail such as painting the bare metal. Such a pity about the loom not being above the brace at the front but you found a neat way of getting around that problem. I agree about the lower height looking better but as you say it’s not as useable as a bed space. The way pop tops seal around the bottom of the canvas puts me off. I have not seen the way any others seal as of yet but having seen your video I will take a look. Great video thanks.

I would definetly tape the roof after you marked the lines before you start cutting. Ill tape it say 10 mm out from the mark this would allow you to follow the line and create edge when you do paint it after. This will save your van paint from all the metal shards and sparks when you cut. Cheers

The other option for the sealant job is to buy some of those plastic bead forming tools. I love them. Used to have nightmares doing shower re- seals until I got mine. You can get a set of them on ebay etc for a couple of quid. They look a bit like oversize guitar plectrums with curved and straight angled shapes on each corner that make very neat jobs.

Excellent advice, help, hints and video. Thank you for making the mistakes for us. Did you foam fill the supports after you put in the long black support poles. These are the bits had the 10mm boles poking up into the old support beams, because you worried about the edge of the metal, I wonder if you insulate the roof after you fitted the roof ?
@JaysFabShop

Hi matey. No I didn’t foam fill the supports after. I could of to be fair but worried that the foam would hold moisture and make things worse? That you think?

Hey Lucy. Thanks for the comment. To be honest it wouldn’t work on yours i very much doubt. I could be wrong though. Awesome to hear you are doing a self conversion. You guys will enjoy it so much

Great video. I'm just about to start my conversion on exactly the same van. Where did you purchase the roof from?

Hi jay unfortunately I’ve already fitte this kit last week and Alan sent me this video to follow. Not knowing you don’t recommend it anymore. Anyway as it stand I’m happy with mine at the min. Sure time will tell. Question is Did you manage to adjust the roof on the hingies? I need to move it slightly but stringing with the Weight of the roof as you have to loosen the Botha when the roof is up. Any recommendations how to do it easy ?

Hi Jay, great video, really informative. Could you tell how much this costs in total, with tools and hardware ? Thank you !

Thank you Thomas. I had most of the tools already to be honest but let’s say I didn’t. I would say this can be achieved very comfortable for £1500

Hi Jay, Another brilliant video, watched a load of the others as well. I also like doing my own stuff. Finally picked up my own Transporter after having been into Aircooled Vee Dubs for many years and then wanting a daily modern van. Mine is a 2012 140 horse Olympian blue panel van with Sportline bumpers, 20" alloys, rear spoiler etc. So chuffed and can't wait to put the windows in etc. The guy in Derbyshire wouldn't happen to be Allan Schofield based in Glossop would it? He has his VW Transporter parts and accessories business there. Be cool if it is as he is only local to myself.....approx 5 miles away. 😃 So damn easy for me to pick up.

how does the vehicle drive? do you feel like it's wobbly and now have more vibration because you've cut out all the roll-over rails and have a flexible roof now?

Hi mate How did you fit the rubber wind deflector strip? Did you get an extra pair of hands or did you do it on you own? Thanks

Hey Simon. I did it on my own. If you use tape then pull the tape along all the bottom of the seal. Then only remove the first couple of inches from one side. Stick that part down in the corner you start from then you can go along holding the seal in place and then peeling the tape cover off as you do and in turn slowly working your way along and sticking it down? Does that make sense

Hi Jay, great job. I bought the same kit and just wondering how you fitted the reinforcement bar along the back cut. Thanks J
