fact, yes I did.  Looks cool.  I will go out and measure where I put it
tomorro and let you know.  You have to be careful where you put it because
of the air conditioning equipment in the back.

You could check the archives also.  It was at least 2 years ago that I
posted the info before.

Subject: Fuba on a Vanagon

Has anyone ever installed a Fuba on a Vanagon?  Just kicking around the
idea, I know it makes for fewer drive-thru's but it would be fine with me,
my garage has the clearance.
If you did this, where would you put it?  Rearward to be correct with other
VW's or near the front to set it apart? (not to mention less wire)
Was this ever an option for later Vanagon's?
Do you suppose European vanheads do this?
How about a nice rubber plug to block and seal the hole?

Yeah I know, too much time on my hands....Dennis DeYoung..
