Insulation

     Stephen, goto > http://members.aol.com/ralanen/insulation.jpg for plans
on how to cut the material I describe below. Many Westys I saw at the
Omerville Rally in Quebec this past summer have this insulation on their
poptops.
     Westy poptop insulation
The material is hot-water tank insulation found at building supply
places. It is silver in colour and is made similar to bubble wrap.
Oeillet is any eyelet as used on tarps. You will need to find these
at either the building supply, tarp repair place, camping supply place or
where ever. Corners and joints are done using duct tape. The back is held
together with a bungie cord between the two eyelets.
