Eurovan Poptop Tent Guide: Choosing the Right Camper or Weekender Tent (Plus Our Black Friday Sale!)
If your Eurovan Camper or Weekender tent is ripped, moldy, sun-faded, or leaking air on cold nights, you’re not alone — these tents are now 20–30 years old, and most original fabrics simply weren’t designed to last this long.
The good news? Replacing your Eurovan poptop tent is one of the best upgrades you can make to improve comfort, airflow, and resale value. And unlike many RV parts, high-quality Eurovan tents are still being manufactured in the USA.
At Poptop World, we stock OEM-style acrylic poptop tents on the shelf, ready for same-day shipping from Washington or California. (Most stores drop-ship or backorder… we don’t.)
Our technicians have installed these same tents in hundreds of Eurovans over the years, so we know firsthand how well they fit, how they perform in real camping conditions, and why acrylic outlasts cheaper materials.
This isn’t just a part we sell — it’s a part we install, test, and trust.
🔧 Camper vs. Weekender: What’s the Difference?
Eurovan Full Camper (Winnebago, 1995–2003)
-
Uses a taller, deeper poptop tent
-
Has a 3-window layout
-
Requires an OEM-spec acrylic tent for best breathability
-
Totally different fit than the Weekender
Eurovan Weekender (Westfalia, 1999–2003)
-
Uses a shorter, narrower tent
-
Also uses a 3-window design
-
Mounting points and window placement differ from the Camper
-
Do not try to use a Camper tent on a Weekender (or vice-versa)
We keep both versions in stock, each built specifically for the correct model.
🧵 Acrylic vs. Polyester: Why Material Matters
Most Eurovan owners are surprised to learn how big a difference the tent fabric makes.
Acrylic (OEM-Style)
✔ Breathable — reduces condensation
✔ Better airflow
✔ More durable and UV resistant
✔ Mold-resistant
✔ Closest to the original Winnebago design
✔ Best for real-world camping
Polyester (Budget Import)
✘ Traps moisture → condensation
✘ Doesn’t breathe well
✘ Prone to fading
✘ Often requires modification to fit
✘ Lower lifespan
If you camp in varying weather, acrylic wins every time.
🇺🇸 Why “USA-Made” Matters (Especially for Eurovans)
Over the years, many tents on the market have shifted overseas, leading to huge variation in fit and quality.
Our tents are:
-
Made in the USA
-
Cut to original Winnebago/Westfalia specifications
-
Reinforced at stress points
-
Built from true camper-grade acrylic fabric
-
Manufactured by a long-established U.S. supplier

No drop shipping.
