Campervan Exterior Accessories & Upgrades

Frequently Asked Questions

What campervan exterior accessories does Play Dirty sell?

Play Dirty’s campervan exterior range includes roof racks, side pods, rear ladders and spare wheel carriers, exterior lighting, recovery equipment and suspension or levelling upgrades. These accessories help you add storage, improve access and prepare your van for camping and adventure.

Choose accessories around your vehicle, conversion layout and intended use. Check each product page for compatibility, dimensions and fitting requirements.

How do I check whether an accessory will fit my van?

Check your van’s make, model, model year, wheelbase and roof height against the product specifications. Accessories for a VW Crafter, MAN TGE or Mercedes Sprinter can vary between vehicle generations and body sizes.

Tell us about any existing roof racks, awnings, roof vents, solar panels or rear-door accessories that could affect installation. For eligible products, get your fit confirmed by Play Dirty before ordering to qualify for our 30-day fit guarantee.

Can I fit campervan exterior accessories myself?

Installation depends on the accessory. Some products use existing mounting points, while others require drilling, cutting, sealing or electrical connections. Check the fitting instructions and supplied hardware before starting.

Side pods, electrical accessories and structural mounting work may require specialist skills. Use a professional installer where needed and follow the product’s installation requirements.

Can a campervan roof rack work with solar panels and an awning?

A roof rack, solar panels and an awning can be combined when their dimensions and mounting systems are compatible. Plan the roof layout around existing vents, skylights and other equipment, leaving the clearance required by each manufacturer.

Check the vehicle’s roof-load limit and the rack’s load rating. Include the rack, brackets and everything carried on it in the total weight, and follow the lowest applicable limit.

What do campervan side pods do?

Campervan side pods extend the usable interior width in a specific area of the van. They are often used to create additional space for a bed positioned across the vehicle.

The space gained and installation position depend on the vehicle and pod design. Check the dimensions against your finished bed layout, including insulation and interior lining. Installation involves modifying the bodywork and sealing the pods correctly.

What should I check before fitting a rear ladder or spare wheel carrier?

Check compatibility with your rear doors, hinges and any existing accessories. Confirm the carrier’s permitted load, wheel and tyre compatibility, and the clearance needed to open the doors.

Allow for the weight of the accessory and its load within your vehicle’s payload and axle limits. The installation must also preserve visibility of the lights and number plate.

3-Year Product Warranty: If your product fails due to a material or manufacturing defect within three years, we’ll repair or replace it free of charge, including the necessary carriage costs.

Are third-party exterior accessories covered by the same warranty?

Check the individual product’s warranty information before ordering, or contact us to confirm the cover that applies. Your statutory rights are unaffected.

How do I care for campervan exterior accessories?

Follow the care instructions supplied with each product. Remove mud, road salt and coastal deposits regularly using suitable cleaning products, and inspect mounting points and fixings as part of your routine vehicle maintenance.

Check coated surfaces for stone chips or accidental damage and follow the manufacturer’s repair guidance. Normal wear, stone chips and accidental damage are excluded from our 5-year finish warranty.
