Well, folks, don't know what rock you all been hiding under BUT, I have had this insulation, made by me, with the full instructions on how to do it, posted on my Poptop Insulation webpage for more than five years. I originally got the plan that I modified from the Quebec Westfalia Club, who had it published long, long, long ago. AND, to boot this was an official WesLast year, I modified it to work inside after seeing the one that Mike Collum had which came from Jonce. Much easier to put up late at night in a snowstorm. It was an easy conversion from outside to inside. So go have a look at my plan, make it yourself or buy it from Jonce whatever, but it WORKS. We camp in very cold conditions with top popped, sleep upstairs, and have a Propex, You all do know I am the official Propex dealer for CANADA ! Well, there ya go, I guess you gotta learn something new every day ! All this coming to you from the Island of Koh Chang, Thailand, while sipping a cold Chang in the hot summer sun, reading the Vanagon List !
