Removeable platform

[njg02]

Hey guys, I need some ideas on how to make a removable sleeping platform in the back of my T5 swb. I want to keep it like a flat pack for storage and use plastic boxes underneath for storage. I was thinking of using ply for the top but not sure on the legs. Maybe just ply on its end?
Help!

Is your van a multivan caravelle because these can have a platform from VW.

They fold up so you can use the whole boot space or have it down for a shelf.

Will try and find more info and come bact to you.

Here you go..



Or if you type 'Multiflexboard' into ebay.de you should find more info.

Hope it helps you in some way...

PS do the OZ multivans not come with this part?

Thanks guys.

Mine is the basic swb transporter. Long enough to sleep in . I just need a platform, which I have found a great design.

Check out the back sleeping arrangements of the Kombi Beach's.

They have a realy good and comfortable bed in the back.

I enquired about the board when we purchased our Multivan, but it wasn't available. I always thought about making one, but have had other things to do instead. It looks like a miniature of the folding tables you can purchase from Officeworks and other stationary stores.

I have one of these flexiboards sat in my spare room ready to bring over with me

I had a look for one in OZ on the net and could not find them so ordered one here...well from Germany.

Very smart piece of lit and makes a big difference to the usage of the multivan.

Its going in the container so you could copy it when we(eventually) arrive.

Hi Rob, just wondering how much it cost you? I was quoted $1671 by my dealer for one!!

Rob,
Maybe you could arrange some additional ones. How much were/are they?
Cheers,

I got mine through a seller in Germany.

There was some messing about with the language and money but i did save £300..($650 ish dollars i think)

If you were very interested i can get a price of a 'Good" friend who works for VW.

I would only be to happy to ship them out to Adelaide for anyone.
Will give him a shout this week for a price.

Great!
I'm definitely interested.
If there is anyone else out there I have a freight account with TNT, so could arrange interstate freight.
If I take a bit of time in replying, I'm in the Solomon Islands at the moment, and the internet access is flaky to say the least.
Cheers,

I would definitely be interested too. I'm based just outside Sydney but usually goto Adelaide a couple of times a year.
