Hi Rob

Just wondered if you found out anymore about this?
I know Reimo are now over here so wondered if you had any more info? I want to pop a t5 swb and notice on another post you had mentioned no-one here would.

cheers

Thats an old post, so ill pipe in as I'm converting a camper at the moment.

Southern Spirt Campers import the Reimo up here in Brisbane.

Reimo Australia should be up and running and the email for Reimo Aus is

frank@reimo.com.au


As for service, i couldn't tell you about Frank, i emailed about some Reimo products and i never heard from him, so i just imported straight from Europe.

Cheers,

Bryn

Sorry that this is an old post, but does anyone know what happens to all of the electronics in the standard roof when replaced by a pop top? "
I'm referring to the aid conditioning controls and lights etc?

Fairly obvious that any wiring for the tail lights etc would probably just be moved sideways to the very outer edge at the sides , the factory wiring is along the left side and after conversion they would just refit it . As for interior lights side mounted would be done or some roof mounted with custom wiring to supply power with roof extended might be an option . Air vents I am afraid would most likely be lost as there is ducting through the roof cavity that would not be compatible with a conversion .

Thanks for the quick response, always thought there would be a compromise

Has anyone done it to a Multivan that could share photos?
Can only find the VW California's online which are made from factory.

Here are a few photos

Ducting and lighting re-routed but airflow is not as strong to the very rear... that said the Multivan ex-factory does not have a roof outlet in the very rear.
