The Fiat Scudo SWB with Front Elevating Roof Conversion is a hidden gem in the world of compact camper conversions. Sharing a platform with the Citroen Dispatch and Peugeot Expert, it combines a solid chassis, great handling, and efficient engines in a compact footprint — ideal for campervan life. But what it gains in drivability, it lacks in interior standing height.

That’s where we come in.

Our Front Elevating Roof Conversion for the Fiat Scudo SWB gives you the one thing this platform desperately needs: headroom. With a lightweight fibreglass pop-top roof, you can stand up inside your van, increase usable space, add an optional bed, and enjoy better airflow and comfort — without compromising your van’s low profile or stealth.

Installed professionally by Kinmel Campers or our UK-wide partners, this elevating roof turns your Scudo into a true camper — whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, or building a compact family setup.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Will the pop-top make my Scudo too tall?
No — most converted Scudos remain under 2.05m in height, so you’ll still fit into multi-storey car parks and height-restricted areas.

Can I drive with the roof partially open?
No. The roof must be fully closed and secured before driving.

Can the roof be used year-round?
Yes. The canvas sides are waterproof and UV-resistant. You can also use thermal wraps in winter.

Can I use the roof space for sleeping?
Yes — with the optional bed boards fitted, it becomes a lightweight sleeping platform.

Is cutting the roof safe?
Yes. We install a steel internal frame for safety and strength. The structure remains sound, weatherproof and DVLA compliant.
