Ok, I just went out to my driveway measured the depth of the left and
right side under front seat battery boxes of 5 Vanagons, 2 of them full
factory Westys, 2 of them Syncros, 4 different years, 82,83,86,87.

They ALL have 7" deep battery boxes on both sides. Measuring was done in
the wheel wells where the front outer section of the box is visible.
