So as I am part way through my conversion, I am now looking towards a pop top. Hilo is the preferred choice but it would be interesting to see what percentage have had issues against people who have not
Hi,
I have been wanting to put rails on my Hilo roof for ages. I got pretty much given a set of Thule roof bars and adaptors (Thule parts 7107 and 7009 + wing bars) coming from a California.
All I need I think is rails that would be compatible with that fitting Kit.
I think the one camper van...
Just saw this posted on another forum that HiLo have gone into administration.

Thought this may be useful for anyone that has a roof conversion booked with them or had one fitted
Hello, I'm about to book van in for full conversion with Scenic campers in Preston. Had a search but can't find many reviews from them here so thought I would ask the question. I popped in a while back and had a look at their T6 conversion and thought it looked really good. Just wondering if...
Morning ;)
My Hilo is in need of a few repairs as it was poorly fitted. I have tried to get quotes for some one to sort and look like none of the good fitters are touching Hilo now. Anyone able to repair or even quote. I'm near Edinburgh but willing to travel.

Hi there all,
does anyone have any contact details for Hilo? The two numbers I had, that worked last year are no longer working. There's nothing on their website. And their contact forms don't really feel like they actually submit anything.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

We have just had an new HiLo roof installed. We choose not to have the orignal roof linning replaced, as we saw no point in the additional expense (£900). When we collected the vehicle, it was pointed out that (see pic) 'this was the best finish available' as we had opted to not have roof trim...
Moring folks,
I've got a Hilo roof fitted and I'm looking to fit a roof rack to carry 3 kayaks, the roof is good for 60kg so the weight is fine, has anyone fitted or had any expiernce of these rack systems?

I'm undecided weather I should go for something like this or just...
Anyone got any experience (good or bad) with Pdubz in Stevenage, potentially looking to get a HiLo install done by them towards the end of the year and from reading the various threads a HiLo is all about the installer.
Cheers
Has anyone fitted a solar panel to a Hilo roof? Wondering how you went about it, roof bars or bonded direct to roof etc...and which way you ran the cabling etc. When the roof is up on a Hilo there is quite a big gap to bridge from the back end of the roof and the tailgate so wondering how people...

Hello fellow T6ers. I'm having a hilo fitted right now to our SWB T6 and have a RIB 112 on order. Jason at Jaibow informed me when I dropped off my van to him about the RIB seat being particularly high and potentially an issue. Something that I hadn't realised. Due to covid I hadn't been able to...
Hi all
I’m currently going with aurora as my conversion company use these but I’m more set on Hilo , love the fact it drops so not visible as a pop top from outside. The company I’m going with on conversion question reliability of Hilo and say it quite significantly reduces internal area when...
Hi all anyone know where the holes at the front under the HiLo roofs go? They gave us little plugs to fill them with when it rains but they are a terrible fit and loads of rain water gets down them... headed somewhere down the A pillar? Anything to worry about?
I know lot of people have problems with their hilo roofs, but I would still like the low profile roof pop top on my van. I'm an Engineer at a well known car company in R&D, so I should be able to overcome any of the current problems.
If anyone has had enough of theirs and wants to sell it on...
Well, I've gone and done it.......I'm taking delivery of my T6 Kombi next week.....can't wait! Now I need to find someone to do a line out, install some lighting and fit an awning etc. Does anyone know of any quality converters up here in Yorkshire? Also, I'm thinking of sound deadening it...
