First attempt at custom mattress

So I decided to buy a 10cm tri-fold single memory foam mattress (£69 from Amazon) and u zipped the bottom two sections and removed the foam. Trimming them to fit neatly as a single bed.

The top third is 75cm wide and tapers down to 60cm at the feet. The top section I am planning on putting a 4mm thick HDPE plastic sheet to give my head more support at the top end.

Even folded it is quite bulky, but I won’t mind that if it is comfy.

Might take this and my inflatable mattress on my next road test just in case.

Would love to know your thoughts!

First trial run!

Did my first ever Tesla Model 3 car camping trip. Just local. Used an inflatable SUV mattress but only inflated 2/3rds. Slept so brilliantly I am definitely going to do more.

As I do this solo, I just put down the larger side in the back. With the driver seat forward I have a great single seat for getting changed and makes it far easier to get into bed.
