VW T5/T4 Conversion

battycow

hi all. I'm planning on getting a VW van to convert for camping, prob a T5 SWB or something similar. I don't really know how much I need to budget for this. I want to put a pop up roof in it, I've found some sites in England, "fully fitted" for £2500 or a bit more on others that are meant to be better. I'm not quite sure about it though, what is the Roof bed, as this can be bough separately. Are there places in Ireland that will do this and for how much? I might get the bed, sink etc put in professionally as I don't want to f it up by doing it myself and can or if this can be done handily enough? Can anyone recommend places that they have dealt with that have placed in windows, placed in swivel chairs, bed, sink etc? Any advice appreciated!

A good place for T4's and T5's specific is also the T4 Forum. You'll find a lot more specific information there.

I'd say you best start to do a layout, of what you actually want, then look around how to realise it. The picture threads on the T4 forum can give you an idea, what can be done.
