Camper Conversion for VW T5 Caravelle

Transform Your VW T5 Caravelle into a Camper Van with Our Removable Modular Camper Kit

Our VW T5 Caravelle Camper Kit lets you convert your family van into a fully functional camper in just seconds.
These self-install removable furniture modules are extremely versatile, allowing you to keep 2, 3, 5 or 7 seats in use, depending on your configuration.
For long-wheelbase (L2) models, all seats can remain installed.

No homologation is required — the VW T5 Caravelle Camper Box is legally classified as removable cargo, so you can pass ITV or MOT inspections without disassembling or altering anything.

When folded, the custom-made camper furniture fits completely inside the trunk area, with the mattress pack neatly stored on top.
This setup preserves full rear visibility and keeps your van's interior discreet from the outside — a clean, factory-style look.

Materials and Finishes for the VW T5 Caravelle Camper Furniture Kit

Lightweight, Water-Resistant and Durable Options for Every Style

Your VW T5 Caravelle Camper Furniture Kit can be built using different materials, each with unique advantages.
All are lightweight, moisture-resistant, and ideal for camper conversions — the choice depends on your preferred finish, durability, and price point.
(At the end of this section, a link will take you to our online store where you can compare materials and prices. Starting at €800, including the 2025 design kit and mattress pack.)

Poplar Plywood – Natural Finish (€850 with mattress pack included)

• Light-colored wood, almost white, with subtle grain.
• It's the lightest option, easy to handle (a medium van kit weighs ~30 kg).
• Hydrofuge treated for high moisture resistance, though not fully waterproof.
• 15 mm thick, very strong and splinter-resistant.
• Soft texture — may mark slightly under pressure (e.g., sitting on keys).

Phenolic Plywood – Natural Wood Tone (€850 with mattress pack included)

• Medium-tone natural wood with visible grain.
• 15 mm thick, light yet robust, ideal for rustic interiors.
• Fully waterproof thanks to internal phenolic layers; will not swell or rot.
• Slightly heavier (~40 kg) but tougher than poplar.
• More porous texture gives an authentic wood feel.

HPL Phenolic Plywood – Carpenter Grade (€900 with mattress pack included)

• Dark brown, almost black finish.
• 15 mm thick, the most durable and premium option.
• Completely waterproof inside and out, with an HPL anti-adhesive coating for easy cleaning.
• Ideal for intensive use and long-term durability.
• Heavier than the other two, yet still within the lightweight category.

Key Features of the VW T5 Caravelle Camper Box

Modular Layout, Folding Bed, and Custom Storage Design

The VW T5 Caravelle Camper Box includes a custom-built pull-out drawer designed for a Campingaz one-burner stove or larger.
Behind the pull-out drawer, there is an independent storage chest with a top-opening lid, ideal for organizing your gear.

At the center, the kit features a multi-height table suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
Inside the van, the table can be positioned for dining mode or lounge mode, as clearly shown in the demonstration video.

Behind the table is another top-opening trunk, while the left side features two compartments with both top and front access.
The rear-left compartment is perfectly sized for a compressor fridge (FR40 type), and the front-access chest is designed to fit a 12V outdoor shower.

In total, the rear section of the VW T5 Caravelle Camper Furniture Kit includes two top-opening storage trunks and three front compartments, not counting optional side modules, which add two more storage areas.
(These details can be seen clearly in the video above.)

Compressor Fridge Compatibility and Configuration Options

The fridge can be installed in either the rear section (inside one of the top-access trunks) or in the front section using a sliding drawer system.
The customer can choose their preferred setup — note that the front-mounted fridge drawer includes an extra 25 mm frame extension.

For best performance and perfect fit, we recommend the Coolzone 35L compressor fridge, fully compatible with the VW T5 Caravelle camper box — offering excellent balance between capacity, efficiency, and durability for vanlife use.

Optimized Layout and Storage Configuration for the VW T5 Caravelle Camper Box

Space Efficiency, Comfort, and Durability in Every Detail

We recommend placing the main storage chest on the left side, featuring a dual-opening design (top and front access).
From our experience, this setup provides better space optimization and flexibility — ideal for fitting a 20L water tank for an outdoor shower or even a portable toilet (Potti).

However, our suggestion is to store the Potti inside the table compartment, and once the camper is unfolded, move it to the front of the vehicle during meals.
This keeps the left storage trunk free for water tanks or extra camping equipment, maximizing usability.

The side modules cover the wheel arches, extending the bed width nearly wall-to-wall, with top lids for extra storage.
We recommend storing bedding on one side and used clothes or accessories on the other — efficient and practical for daily vanlife use.

H3: Drawer Options, Build Quality, and Finish Harmony

Although the kit can be equipped with a double drawer setup at no extra cost, we don't recommend it for most users.
While double drawers may look aesthetic in photos, they significantly reduce internal storage space and increase lever stress on full-extension slides over time.
When requested, we install reinforced rails rated for 30–40 kg to ensure reliability.

We emphasize structural strength and design harmony: our furniture is built to be solid, compact, and long-lasting.
The color palette and finish options are carefully matched to the interior of the VW T5 Caravelle, with our popular Dark Grey mattress pack for a clean, elegant look.

Measurements and Mattress Pack Specifications

The dimensions of the VW T5 Caravelle Camper Box vary depending on whether seats are installed.
Generally:

• Width: 120 cm (without mattress pack)

• With visible wheel arches: +16 cm per side via side modules

• With mattress pack: 155 cm total bed width

• Depth: 120 cm (bed extended: 185–190 cm)

If your van has rear air conditioning or plastic wheel arch covers, we adjust the width with removable side flaps to maintain perfect fit and symmetry.

All kits include a custom-made modular mattress pack, designed for multiple configurations (bed, lounge, and dining mode).
This system allows easy access to any storage compartment without disassembling the entire bed, and the foam segments fit snugly together, leaving no gaps — ensuring comfort, support, and durability comparable to a home mattress.

Structural Design and Load Distribution System

Solid, Balanced, and Compatible with All VW T5 Caravelle Versions

All VW T5 Caravelle Camper Modules include a dedicated compartment to store the table leg and bed support legs, keeping them securely in place while driving — everything remains neatly organized inside the luggage compartment.

In every VW T5 Caravelle configuration, the Camper Box has been carefully engineered to distribute weight across two main sections, ensuring long-term durability and protection of the vehicle's structure:

• The main module, which serves as the primary structural base.

• The folding extension, which rests either on the folded rear seats or on a folding leg if the seats are removed.

H3: Adjustable Height and Multi-Seat Compatibility

The VW T5 Caravelle Camper Furniture Kit can be installed at different heights depending on seat configuration:

• With seats installed (keeping 5 or 6 seats operational), the platform height aligns with the folded seat backrest (~56 cm).

• For setups without seats, the structure can be built between 40 and 44 cm high, optimizing cargo and storage capacity.

This dual-level modular design ensures a stable and compact setup, while protecting the original seats — a common concern among van owners.
In fact, the furniture adds protection to the seats rather than causing any wear or pressure.

H3: Compact Design, Tested Stability, and Custom Fit

Our two-part modular system has been extensively tested for strength and balance, ensuring a rock-solid installation with no rattles or instability even on long road trips.
Every component fits seamlessly within the factory trunk space, maintaining the clean aesthetics and practicality expected from the VW T5 Caravelle camper conversion.
