Expedition Centre · Sydney · since 2010
Designed to Age Well.
Expedition Centre designs and builds expedition-ready vehicles for people who want to travel well, travel further, and live out their idea of freedom. From world-class roof conversions to complete touring systems, everything we do is built for real journeys, not trends.
The Flagship
The Mulgo Pop Top Conversion
Mulgo Pop Tops are engineered for travellers who care about how something works, not just how it looks. Low-profile, inside-close, and refined through years of real-world use, they are designed to integrate seamlessly with iconic platforms like the LandCruiser Troopy, Defender, Grenadier, HiAce, and select vans. But we don’t stop there — the range of vehicles we’ve completed Mulgo roof conversions on continues to grow year after year.
This is not a bolt-on accessory. It is a structural, considered upgrade that changes how you live with your vehicle every day on the road.
16 Years
Of Mulgo roof conversion engineering
16 years of real-world fixes are already in the pop-top before we start on yours, so you get the result, not the prototype.
Nights in Mulgo roof conversions and counting
Real-world tested since 2010, based on the average number of nights our customers spend in their vehicles.
8 Platforms
Vehicle platforms we build on, with more coming
Troopy, Defender, Grenadier, HiAce and select full-size vans — every conversion tuned to the chassis, not retrofitted from a generic template.
Mulgo Pop Top Conversions
Low-profile, inside-latching roof conversions engineered and built in Sydney. Designed to integrate with iconic platforms like the Troopy, Defender, Grenadier, and select vans. A structural upgrade that preserves the vehicle’s silhouette and changes how you live on the road.
Mulgo Fit Outs
For travellers who want a complete system, Mulgo Fit Outs extend the same engineering mindset into storage, electrics, and interior layouts. Everything is designed to work together, feel intentional, and endure long-term use.
Mulgo Electrical Systems
Your electrical system is critical infrastructure. Mulgo Electrical Systems are designed as complete architecture, with load mapping, correct cable sizing, and thermal management planned from the start. A full power foundation built to age well.
Troopy Roof Conversions
The Troopy is the most converted expedition vehicle in Australia, and the Mulgo pop-top is built for it. Low-profile, inside-latching, and engineered around the 70-series chassis — a structural roof conversion that turns the Troopy into a full expedition platform without changing what makes it iconic.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Expedition Centre do?
Expedition Centre designs and builds expedition-ready vehicles for people who want to travel by 4WD and overland platforms. Our work focuses on engineered roof conversions, touring fit outs, and complete vehicle systems built for real-world travel rather than short-term trends.
What is a Mulgo Pop Top conversion?
A Mulgo Pop Top is a low-profile roof conversion that adds standing room and liveability while preserving the original lines and capability of the vehicle. Unlike bolt-on solutions, Mulgo Pop Tops are fully integrated, inside-close, and engineered for long-term use in harsh conditions.
Which vehicles do you build Pop Tops for?
Mulgo Pop Top conversions are available for select platforms including the LandCruiser Troopy, Defender 110, Ineos Grenadier, and certain vans. Each platform has a dedicated solution designed specifically for its structure and use case. We also work across different vehicles every year — if your vehicle isn’t listed, get in touch and we’ll discuss what’s possible.
Are Mulgo Pop Tops built in Australia?
Yes. Mulgo Pop Tops are engineered and built in Australia, with a focus on durability, serviceability, and suitability for long-distance and remote travel conditions.
Do you offer full vehicle fit outs as well?
Yes. In addition to Pop Top conversions, we offer Mulgo Fit Outs and electrics that extend the same engineering philosophy into storage, layouts, and touring systems. Fit outs can be combined with a Pop Top or delivered as part of a broader build package.
Can I start with a package rather than a custom build?
Yes. Our packages are designed to provide proven starting points that reduce guesswork and speed up decision-making. From there, we refine the build through consultation to suit your vehicle, travel style, and long-term plans.
Where is Expedition Centre located?
The Expedition Centre HQ is in Sydney, Australia. Our Sydney facility is home to our factory, showroom, and primary fitment centre. We also work with a network of trusted fitment partners across Australia and internationally. Our Locations page outlines where builds take place and how we support customers throughout the process.
How do I get started?
The best first step is to book a consultation. This allows us to understand your vehicle, how you plan to travel, and what matters most to you, before recommending the right Mulgo solution or package.
