I have used my Rock and roll bed several times but i am really awkward when it comes to sleeping and my feet hang over the edge of the bed a bit.
So i was wondering if anyone knows a way i could extend the bed without doing any cosmetic permanent changes to my bongo i have seen some that have a stool on the other side behind the drivers seat so when the bed out it makes full length bed.
Anyone know someone that makes or sells these or how easy it would be to make something like this
any help tips advice be greatly appreciated

We used to put our porta potti at the end of the bed covered in a couple of fleece blankets and this did the trick for extra length at the end of the bed.
'I know that 321 Away used to make boxes, could give them a try

Plastic storage crates with lids. Get some the right height and you've also got somewhere to put you extra kit.
My entire bed extension is based on them with just one remaining row of seats for the main part of the bed. I like sleeping with head and shoulders raised up by several clicks. It saves carrying extra pillows.

Ditto, exactly what we do
I use these

there' s one that is just the right height to marry up with our 'flip up' rear seats. Get the lids as well when you order. Very useful storage, and strong enough to support the lower half of a body.
