Yes, that is the idea behind many of our camper kits: dual use, no permanent installations, and removal to go back to cargo mode.
Our camper kits are not compatible with MPVs or SUVs. They can, however, be fitted in vans. I recommend visiting our Catalogue page, where you can look up your make and van model.
With “boot-stowed” systems the aim is to keep the seats for travelling; with others, only the last row is removed in vehicles with many seats.
With Furgomania it’s simple thanks to its self-installing kits, which are designed so that one person can easily fit and remove them without instructions or tools.
There are some very interesting options. At Furgomania we work with the best makes and models to convert without modifications, and without tools or instructions. You can visit our website and see all the models and makes we work with.
