Pop-Top Roof for the Ford Transit Connect LWB (2012–2020) — Fitted in the UK by CCCampers

The Ford Transit Connect LWB is one of the UK's most popular compact vans — and a Stargaze Front Elevating Pop-Top Roof transforms it into a genuinely capable, year-round micro camper. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for urban use, easy parking, and stealth camping, while a pop-top roof delivers full standing headroom when you need it. We are a UK specialist in campervan conversions and all-electric campervan work, holding IMI Level 3 TechSafe EV/hybrid training, NCC Academy Trained and AWS Approved Workshop accreditations. Professionally fitted at our Worcestershire workshop. All prices include VAT.

Why Front-Opening?

The front-opening design hinges at the rear, raising the front of the roof to position maximum headroom over the living and kitchen area — exactly where you spend most of your time. It creates a bright, open interior with excellent natural ventilation through the canvas sides. Reinforced B-posts maintain seatbelt mounting integrity and structural safety after roof removal.

Built for British Weather, Year-Round

Marine-grade, waterproof, double-seamed canvas with aluminium trim profiles — built to last in all UK conditions, from summer festivals to winter escapes. Fitted from our workshop in Worcestershire, serving customers across the West Midlands, Birmingham, Coventry, Shropshire, Herefordshire, Wales, Gloucestershire, Bristol and nationwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Ford Transit Connect LWB a good base for a campervan conversion?
Yes — the Transit Connect LWB's compact footprint makes it ideal for urban use, easy parking, and stealth camping, while still offering enough interior space for a practical micro campervan layout. CCCampers, as a UK specialist in campervan conversions and all-electric campervan work, have experience fitting pop-top roofs to the Transit Connect and can advise on the best layout for your build.

What is the difference between the SWB and LWB Transit Connect?
The LWB (Long Wheelbase) variant offers a longer load bay compared to the SWB, providing more usable space for a campervan conversion. This fitment is for the LWB variant only — contact us if you have an SWB to discuss options.

Which years of Transit Connect are compatible?
This fitment covers 2012–2020 LWB models (second generation). If you have a 2020+ or first-generation Transit Connect, contact us with your vehicle details and we'll advise on compatibility before booking.

How long does pop-top roof installation take?
Most Transit Connect pop-top roof fittings are completed within 3–5 days at our Worcestershire workshop. Lead times vary by season — book early to secure your slot.

Is the fitting included in the price?
Yes — the £3,950 price includes full professional installation by our NCC Academy Trained and IMI TechSafe registered technicians. VAT is included.

Can I add a roof bed or solar panels?
Yes — optional roof bed boards and solar panel integration are available as extras. Discuss your full build specification when you enquire.
