Hi David,

In my wolfsburg/carat configuration the pop-up table is hinged directly
to the driver's side interior wall and it is only about half the width
of the Vanagon. There is no cabinetry on either wall.

With the table out (horizontal) and the bed down I can still get past it
easily to exit.

Happy Trails,
