Short Product Summary

This is the Alu-Cab Roof Conversion Backrest for the Land Cruiser 78, a reclining seat back with an aluminium frame and bamboo. It gives you something comfortable to lean on while reading or relaxing in the tent.

Why This Product

A sleeping platform is fine for lying down, but not for sitting up with a book or a hot drink. A backrest gives you support for the evening, without carrying a camping chair into the tent, and it can be adjusted to suit how you like to sit.

Key Features

  • 10-slot reclining design – lets you lock it upright, reclined or anywhere in between
  • Aluminium frame with bamboo – combines a light metal frame with bamboo
  • Lightweight – about 5.25 kg unboxed, so it is easy to carry
  • Retrofittable – can be added to an existing setup
  • Comfort for reading or relaxing – a place to lean when you are not lying flat

Ideal For

  • Hercules Roof Conversion owners who want somewhere to sit up inside the tent
  • Readers and evening relaxers who want back support at the end of the day
  • Travellers who like to adjust with ten positions, you set the angle that suits you
