Toyota Yaris Verso Camper Build *Folding Bed*
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 09. 2024
- Another car camping video, in a Toyota Yaris Verso this time. This one sleeps two (medium sized) people. It is easy to assemble and can be taken apart for storage.
Also, the car is fully functional with the bed folded away and all 4 seats can still be used.
The bed is very comfortable.
I hope you enjoy or are able to get some inspiration from the video.

The measurements:
So you could look at the frame as one "box" in the back, which is connected to a sup frame in the front. For the "box" the outside measurements are height 48 cm, width 41cm and dept 96 cm. I give outside measurements because you might have different diameter tubing (mine are 27 mm aluminium tubes) and different connectors. Also, it is important to make sure it is possible to bolt it to the floor like I did in the video, so measurements might differ a little to make it fit well. This worked of me.
The "box" or back part of the frame is connected to the front part by three 115 cm tubes.
The front frame had the same width (96 cm) but is a bit higher. I would advise to make it so it fits with the seats folded down into the floor. I did not do this, but I will change this because it gives much more support and a lot more space for you stuff, which will be easier to get to as well.
Lastly, the wood consists of 3 panels of about 45 by 122 cm and one panel of about 50 by 122 cm. These have measurements/shapes which are had to describe, but I would advise to make them out of cardboard first anyway as it takes some tweeking to get it right, and it depends a lot on the height of the frame.
After using it, it would be nice to have the bed a little lower, but you would and up with less space for storage and a shorter bed. With the measurements above, the bed should be about 185-190 cm in length.
Please take all these measurements as a guideline and not as the exact way it should be done. If you have any more questions I'll try to help the best I can. I will also make a video with upgrades later, but it might take a while...
Great idea wither the pipe system!
great vid！I believe the rear seats can be folded completely under the floor. It could give you a completely flat cargo space
They can! I thought I wanted to be able to use them as a seating area, but I think keeping them folded away is the better option. Will make some minor changes to be able to do so.
This makes me so unbelievably happy! I didn’t know it could be done! Been trying to figure it out for ages ❤
Awesome!
It works! Just had the best camping experience with my two girls - thank you!
Looking good. Miss my old yaris verso 🙏 Great car
Thank you! Totally agree, the compact versatility is hard to beat
Perfect!
Clever build but I actually used timber for mine. With those metal rounded supports at the rear you may have issue getting to the spare wheel and tools:) My rear seats folding underneath the front ones so I may have more space for bed supports. Anyway Funcargo are best just bought second one after my engine died:(
U R A GENIUS SOMEDAY I'LL HAVE IT DONE JUST LIKE THAT ❤️😁😘😊THANK U
Thank you! That would be great! Good luck
Brilliant ❤ great video thanks
This is sooooo great!!!! Thanks for sharing 👌
hi, I have the same exact car and I've been waiting for somebody to make a project like this. can you PLEASE give me the measurements of everything? pipes etc.
I'd appreciate it so much, my gf and I are going to a nice camping spot this summer and we'd love to use our car as a camper.
I will try to figure it out. Unfortunately the car is being used for something else and the camper setup is in storage atm. Will let you know if I know more. I'm planning to go camping with it within the next couple of weeks..
@@affordableadventure Great! hope to hear from you soon! ❤
@@affordableadventure I'd really like the meassurements too!
@@affordableadventure Let us know 🙌🙏
All right, it's been a while but I hope this still helps. The measurements..

Bought a Verso, and going to to replicate this exactly! What thickness mattress did you use, and what type of foam did you get? Fellow dutchman here - any other way to contact you if I have questions about your build?
Hallo,
Zelf hebben we ondertussen een andere auto. Dus misschien kan je hem wel overnemen. Je kan me mailen op contact.affordableadventure@gmail.com
Anders staan de details in de beschrijving. Ik hoor het graag!
Why did you not fold the back chairs under the front seats. That gives a ton of space.
I did it this way so I can still use the backseats. But I did cut two pieces of pipe to size, so I can use it in the way you describe as well. Definitely agree that's the way to go for a longer trip for two!
@@affordableadventure Smart move..very sturdy and comfortable.. I am converting mine with a wood frame, for one person but adjustable with a second frame so I can also sleep with two. Quite complicated, but I'm getting there.
Can i ask why you cut it those parts in the ply mid way down please on both sides ? And what are the pipe fittings called so I could order some please ? Thank you. You need window tints
Show us the results please. Maka a video and give us the link@@heleenoomen1404
@@andber Everybody who owns a Yaris Verso knows how to fold the back chairs under the front seats. Look up videos on YT.
❤❤❤❤
May I ask are you in the UK? If so, would you be willing to make these and sell? I would definitely purchase!
I'm not unfortunately. But I did write all the measurements in the descriptions, if you want to make it yourself or have it made...
I built this in my verso - bloody brilliant. But sadly my car has died. I now have the bits - would anyone like to buy them? Bristol England
Great to hear you actually made it. I sold mine to somebody recently after we bought a new car.. There are still quite a few yaris verso enthusiasts around!
Quick question: How tall are you? I'm wondering if a 193 cm person (me) is too long for such a build.
The bed itself is a bit longer than 180 cm, probably about 185.. But you can put the pillow on the back of the front seats for some extra space. It would be tight though...

I think its 27 mm
Can you do it for me? How much would it cost me plus labour?
Unfortunately I am not able to do it for you. But it cost me about 150-200 euro's in materials and I wrote the measurements in the description if you want to do it yourself or find someone to do it. Hope this helps
Which is diametro of the tubes?
They're 27 mm. I put most of the measurements in the description. They can be used as a guideline for a similar build.
What’s a Verso?? They are forbidden in USA apparently to make room for the idiotic pickup trucks here
Its the MPV version of the yaris. This specific model was made until about 2005. Its a very nice car!
In Japan it’s called the Fun Cargo if that helps
