Premium TopTrail Pop Top Tent for 1986–1991 VW Vanagon Westfalia (Rear Hinge)
Give Your Vanagon a Fresh New Look with a Premium TopTrail Pop Top Tent
If your original Vanagon Westfalia tent is faded, torn, leaking, or covered in mildew, replacing it with a new TopTrail canvas is one of the most dramatic upgrades you can make to your camper.
Designed specifically for 1986–1991 Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia campers with the factory rear-hinged pop top, this premium replacement tent combines modern materials with an OEM-quality fit and finish. Manufactured in Europe using durable, weather-resistant fabric, it provides years of dependable camping while preserving the classic look of your Westfalia.
Whether you're restoring a beloved Vanagon or preparing for your next adventure, a new pop top tent transforms the appearance, comfort, and functionality of your camper.
Why Replace Your Original Vanagon Tent?
Most original Vanagon tents are now over 35 years old. Even well-maintained canvas eventually begins to show its age.
Common problems include:
-
Torn or worn fabric
-
Mold and mildew stains
-
Brittle or cracked windows
-
Failed zippers
-
Worn insect screens
-
Water leaks
-
UV fading
-
Musty odors
Installing a new tent improves ventilation, helps keep the interior dry, and gives your camper a fresh, like-new appearance.
Premium TopTrail Quality
TopTrail has earned a reputation throughout Europe for manufacturing high-quality replacement camper components. Their Vanagon tents are built using premium materials and careful craftsmanship for an excellent fit and long service life.

Enjoy:
-
Excellent cross ventilation
-
Bright, open interior
-
Fresh air while sleeping
-
Privacy panels when desired

-
Keep your Westfalia ready for years of adventures

We Recommend Replacing These Parts During Installation
Since the pop top is already apart, many owners also replace:

Mounting hardware

Sealants and adhesives

Roof rack seals (if equipped)
Replacing these items at the same time helps ensure a weather-tight installation and reduces future labor.
