Subject:Westfalia cabinet molding...
From:Daniel Schmitz
Date:Tue, 9 May 2000 17:00:26 -0700

This is probably a not-often-asked-for item, but the Westfalia gray
plastic (rubber?) moldings on many of my cabinets appear to have shrunk
in size, in that they no longer extend over the length of the corner,
joint, or door aperture as they originally did/were supposed to. Thus,
my cabinet trim has an odd, ill-fitting appearance. The molding on my
A/C housing is even rippled as if temperature changes caused it to warp
in place.

My van came from Colorado, having spent all of its life there.

Is this symptomatic of a dry climate?

If so, will these moldings return to their original lengths now that the
van lives in San Francisco?

Are these moldings available anywhere, either in bulk or in pieces?

Should I be asking about more serious Vanagon problems in this forum? :)

Thanx again,

Dan
'87 Westfalia
