Welcome @malc,

It's hidden away @malcolmyz85 Click on "search" then "advanced search" - that's where the custom google search is now, which is the best way to search the forum content.

Really liking our Northstar rear conversion. Some think of the rear conversion as 'dayvan' but if you get the mattresses organised (and maybe have poptop fitted too) then it's every bit a campervan as the side conversion. As well as giving you a wider (but shorter) bed it retains the mid-seats so is comfier for passengers and they sit further forward compared to a rock'n'roll so you can converse. Cost is about half that of the side-conversion. The rear unit can be removed if needed, although would be a bit of work if you have all the electrics, fridge. gas and water fitted.
