The Honda Stepwagon with Front Elevating Roof Conversion is one of Japan’s most beloved family vehicles — and for good reason. With its clever packaging, ultra-spacious cabin, and innovative rear tailgate system, the Stepwagon makes for an ideal base vehicle for a compact and efficient campervan conversion.

But one of its key limitations? Headroom.

That’s why our professionally installed Front Elevating Roof Conversion is the ultimate upgrade for Stepwagon owners looking to transform their van into a practical camper. Designed for both UK and Japanese imports, this pop-top roof adds essential standing height, expands usable living space, and opens the door to multi-level sleeping arrangements — all while maintaining the Stepwagon’s sleek profile.

Whether you use your Honda Stepwagon for weekend trips, full-time vanlife, or as a versatile family runaround, this roof will redefine what your van can do.
