Premium Pop-Top Upgrade by Pop Top Nation

The VW T5 & T6 LWB Front Elevating Roof Conversion remain some of the UK’s most popular choices for camper conversions. Their long-wheelbase (LWB) versions offer extra space for layouts and storage — but without vertical headroom, the interior can still feel restrictive.

Pop Top Nation’s VW T5 & T6 LWB Front Elevating Roof Conversion solves this problem by adding essential standing height, optional sleeping space, and better airflow, all while maintaining the Transporter’s iconic silhouette and aerodynamics.

Whether you’re converting a brand-new T6.1 or upgrading your trusted T5 LWB, this conversion turns your van into a more comfortable and versatile camper.

Purpose-Built for VW T5 & T6 LWB Models

Unlike generic pop-tops, this conversion is tailored specifically for the long-wheelbase VW Transporters. It fits perfectly with the roofline, providing headroom right where you need it most — above the main living and kitchen areas.

Key advantages include:

• Preserves the classic VW Transporter style while enhancing usability.

• Optimised for the LWB’s longer proportions, giving a balanced, factory-look finish.

• Retains excellent aerodynamics, helping reduce wind noise and improve fuel efficiency.

Complete Conversion Package

Every Pop Top Nation VW T5/T6 LWB Front Elevating Roof Conversion includes:

• A precision-moulded fibreglass pop-top roof shell.

• Marine-grade waterproof canvas in a choice of colours.

• Integrated flush-mounted LED lighting with concealed wiring.

• A reinforced internal mounting frame for safety and rigidity.

• Professional-grade seals, hinges, and hardware.

• Full professional installation by experienced technicians.

• A 5-year comprehensive warranty on parts and labour.

This is not a DIY kit — it’s a full, professionally fitted upgrade designed for long-term performance.
