Great idea. Great shelf. Takes a little adjustment from time to time, but then what doesn't in a Westy, or Vanagon for that matter.
If you can catch Mr. BZ at an event, he will even install it.

Hi Eric,
Thanks for the shameless plug for the BZ Shelf as a easy way to attach lights.
I have sent out pics/links etc to a number of Volks from this thread, so they have all the gory details.
Cheers,
Tom

When top op it becomes a handy shelf usable either from the bottom area or top bunk. I have a led on the bottom connected with a magnet. It acts like a nice ceiling light.
