Cost wise say 3k, call that evens for the materials for the panda design, plus ADR certification, this is a vehicle modification after all.

Then if you had it on a new 90, would you invalidate your warranty, I think so... sure if you had a older 90 then you probably would not care, your insurance company would I am sure care....

I think the idea is great ( was it the cost that killed the company ) due to lack of sales??

yeah it would be boutique business, kits made to order. But if it was as cheap as a roof tent with simple bare bones design the kit could easily be exported. There are plenty 90 owners worldwide who use roof tents and do not have warrenty and ADR concerns.

The roof of a 90 is long enough for a pop top conversion.
As long as you want external access to the bed our pop top frames can be amended to suit a 90. If you are looking for internal access to the bed then we need to look into making a 'manhole' type access.

Bottom line, it is doable, just need a 90 in my workshop.

Cheers,
Daniel
