Congratulations on being the first with the rooftop conversion. My big question is what does the rooftop weight? Additionally what materials are used in its construction? Is the roof heavily insulated? Will installation void factory warranty? Lastly what will it cost installed? Thank in advance
It seems quiet high, wouldnt it be better and cheaper to just install a regular roof top tent? The whole point of a pop up roof is to make it look thin and light so we dont need to add roof rack plus a RTT.
The whole point of a pop top is to create space so you can sleep in it without having to get out of the vehicle to get into the vehicle. That you can stand upright in the vehicle and, for example, change clothes in a certain privacy. This also has the advantage that, for example in cooler regions, you can heat the vehicle including the sleeping area more easily while you are traveling. The thickness of the mattress is what makes a high-quality sleeping roof. Because the front area of the roof between the A and B pillars of the Grenadier cannot be removed and the original roof remains there, this area determines the height at which the mattress will rest. It is often the case that you want to store your duvets in the roof, which also means that you need more space up there. So they clearly followed the rule "form follow function" and didn't just create a pop-up roof with lousy sleeping quality that just looks fancy.
Toll!

Awesome I was waiting to see who would do one
Game changer. I just swung back from the auto 78 (with a ton of ugrades) because of this!
I also wanna skip LC78 because , its to much money for NOTHING.
Oatley park, the traditional home of classic overland vehicles
I'm so drooling right now.🤤 ✅️ Ganze Ganze Toll! Ja Bitte!
Good job! Now, contract with Ineos to install them at the factory.
Looks just like the alu-cab but violates my rule #1 as they do. No canvas!!

Looks great, do you do one for the new defender?
Can't the new defender ender is a monoque frame
👌👌👍👍
When and how will it be available?
Will be available in Europe early next year. And in Australia, we are taking bookings now.
Not sure about the look of this - kind of 'ambos' the Grenadier
what happens to all the switchesninfront of the original roof
At 00:59 you can see they're still there - the roof inside is cut behind the front crossmember, leaving the roof console intact.
thanks@@skwdenyer
Should check out what the lead singer Paul Weller evolved into! Group called the Style Council 😊
Not liking the aesthetics.. perhaps that would get spiffed up with a fox wing awning
Optisch nicht gerade ansprechend und ziemliches gefummel . Noch weit weg von praxisgerecht
