http://www.boot-bag.com/ That looks like you wouldn't even need a roof rack. Just sling it on the roof. | |

| I don't think it would hold in place as well using the cab doors as securing points unlike a car boot which generally is flat and shuts tight.
Put it this way ... I wouldn't risk it! ________________________________________________________________________________ Max SportsKombi - The Bay Racer

| I use a tarp and JK bags on the split and made sure it didn't matter if the stuff we put in it got wet.  | |

| I'm looking for bag(s) that would take a Khyam Motordome Sleeper... And I have no idea at all how many litres that is!!! Any ideas? At the moment, the awning is in two bags - one with the tent and bedroom, and the other with poles and groundsheet. | |

Have a look at this page Barry ... it details the 'packed' dimensions of the Sleeper: Motordome Sleeper ________________________________________________________________________________ Max SportsKombi - The Bay Racer

| Thanks, Tim. I reckon just over 100 litres. But, of course, it's a 'shaped' volume.
Maybe I'll just carry it in the van... | |

| They are quite heavy so that may make your steering somewhat harder if you bung the Sleeper up above the cab! Time for some pas.
Also you wouldn't want to put your back out putting it up there/getting it down - that would make for a great start to a holiday! ________________________________________________________________________________ Max SportsKombi - The Bay Racer

| Hi SS - I must talk to you at Dubs in the Forest about the lights on your roof rack - interesting they are (said in a Yoda stylie) - And that was quite a trip when you got your gorgeous splitty sprayed - love it! | |
