I saw a custom camping van on Instagram today that had a pop top camper on it. Curious can these sort of pop tops be added on a already converted van? Or is that just asking for trouble? I really like the idea of this and obviously the added sleeping room it provides.

Thoughts?
 
As I understand it can be done. We don't have one on ours. That said, I did look into possibly adding to our 170 last year. You have a few options so I suggest you consider your options there. Now you are talking about doing yourself as DIY right? If so, highly suggest you speak with custom van shop first. My neighbor has a 170 as well and he tried install a Colorado Campervan top and ended up messing up his roof, and had to bring into a shop to to fix and install correctly.

So I wonder, does something like this effect how the insurance companies see these vans? Seeing that the structural integrity of the roof has changed.
