Another quick update to show you all my canvas!

It looks the part I think and also very practical.

Opens on all three sides and also has a zip on the inside so I can unzip where the rear window is.
That way I still get the luxury of using the rear window to bring long items with me and not have to take the canopy off :D

I had them make 2 vents on each side to prevent dust and also a little ventilation when sleeping in the back.

Next will be the spray on liner on the inside of the tub.

Looks good, how do the vents go at keeping the dust out? Have you had the chance to find out yet?
I'm not so good with the advice :oops: ... Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment??? :twisted:

No dust in Perth this weekend. Meant to piss down :o
I may park it outside tomorrow night and sleep in the back to test how waterproof it is
:D
Has anyone used their canvas canopy to sleep in? How well does it breathe?
Can't wait to test it out
:P

It is held down with velcro so pretty easy to use.

It cost me 1000 for the canvas. The frame was done by another company which was extra.

One k was more or less the average price here in Perth. Not sure how you will go over there but I'd imagine it is cheaper in vic as everything in wa is more expensive :(

Be nice if they were made sound proof ;)
Good to hear people are sleeping well in the back I love a good sleep outdoors
