Welcome! Have you looked into the pop-up slide in campers? They have the advantage of being much lighter, which I would think would be a big deal&nbsp; on a light vehicle like the Courier. Also, they stay cooler with fabric up top with lots of "windows".&nbsp; They also sit much lower which is much better for fuel economy and gives a lower center of gravity for 4-wheelin. Building your own would be complicated since you have to find a fiberglass top the right size, unless you can fabricate your own. <br><br>Keep us informed, I would love to have an article for the site if you do build your own.
