SWB camp bed idea.
I was thinking about, and mentioned to Zac that I had an idea that could mean an SWB could be used as a camper. I was thinking about something like this mounted on the front seat(s).
I've just stumbled across this which is essentially the idea. http://www.amdro.co.uk/gallery/index...0Kombi%20bed#8 I'm not sure on height whether you'd need two hinged sections, but I like the idea of having a bit of protection from flying objects when the bed is in its upright position. No loss of rear luggage space and a nice flat bed base for nights away. Storage space under the bed. I don't see why it couldn't be fitted to the rear seats of the LWB either A pretty neat idea. |

And thanks for sharing... I'm always looking for ways to make mine into a stealth camper type vehicle with space saving ideas!
This one is a nice folding Idea, but the only problem I see with it, is that it doesn't fold with a mattress or foam on which means you will have to find a place to store that too! (Unless I'm missing something?) |

It's a good idea and doesn't look too hard to fabricate one yourself.
As for the mattress a single self inflating mat like what I use for camping would do the trick. Rolls up into a nice compact bag when in storage. https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Single-Self...Mo4-ctzXrcu__Q |
