I just ordered a ShurFlo faucet from Camping World for $29.99 plus $1 for shipping. It doesn't have the nifty pull-out handle like the Eurovan one, but at about 10% of the price, it may be another option worth considering. The camping world part number is 12036 and the description is "Electric 12v Water Faucet" NOTE: I have not actually seen the faucet, as it was recommended by another list member (who's opinion I trust), but according to said list member: >The head swivels 360 degrees and the > whole thing pivots up and down.

Another caveat - I may have the part number wrong, since I was relying on the telephone sales person at Camping World; but I figure with $1 shipping, if its wrong, I'll just send it back! :-) Also, it requires fabrication of a large washer since the Westy sink opening is larger than the faucet's base.
