On my van there's one on the floor crossmember under the van, facing the
back, just under the front of the sliding door latch. There must be more so
these kinds of things would be very difficult to "forge".

Those are ethical questions that can only be answered from within.

For me, the bigger question is... is it worth the risk?  Personally, no.  I
value me freedom too much to risk it on something so trivial.

BTW:  Does anyone know where all the VIN #'s are on a Vanagon?  The
dashboard and door jam are obvious, but where are they stamped into the
body?

Cheers,

Jeff

But is it wrong?  Who's it hurting?
