Hallo Listees!

Could you share your experience with the Thule system on your Westy? I would
like to buy a Thule cargo box and attach it to the pop-top so I don't lose
the upper bunk beds. We are a family of four taking long summer trips. The
Thule dealer here in Blue Springs, Missouri has never dealt with a
Westfalia, but assured me the hardware was available. However, after
consulting with the factory he said that Thule will void the warranty if the
box is attached to the poptop. Is there a problem i.e. breaking/cracking of
the top maybe? Also, last year at Olympic National Park, I saw a Thule bike
carrier attached to the towhitch of a Seattle Westy.It was one of those
foldable deals which allow you to open the hatch w/o unloading the bikes.Any
info on that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Hermann de Boer
