VW Crafter / MAN TGE LWB Side Pods (Pair)

VW Crafter and MAN TGE LWB Side Pods (2017+)

Create an approximately 1980mm (6'6") transverse sleeping area in your Long Wheelbase Volkswagen Crafter or MAN TGE, freeing up space for a larger kitchen, fixed bathroom, seating or rear garage without increasing your van’s length.

Hand-built in the UK from lightweight GRP fibreglass, these side flares provide a factory-style appearance once painted. Used in our own premium Wildworx campervan builds, they’re available with blank panels or optional opening windows.

Vehicle Compatibility

Designed for 2017 onwards VW Crafter LWB and MAN TGE LWB models with:

• A sliding side door
• No factory mid-side window
• Factory 270° rear doors must be converted to 180° hinges
