Subject:Re: making sense of "M codes" ?? (vanagon option codes)

Mike:
You did such a great job of deciphering Chris' options on his DoubleCab,
could you give mine a shot?  I'm curious if there are options that got
stripped or perhaps might be there that I have not discovered yet!

Vehicle Type: 247 341
Engine Code: CS (I know this is 1.6L NA Diesel and pretty sure it's
original)
Trans Code: ABF (I KNOW that mine was ACP before Daryl re-geared it, is ABF
equivalent to ACP?)
Paint Code: L319 (looks army green to me)
Interior Code: LN (brown leatherette?)
Optional Equipment:
  NKM
  013 - passenger seat, two persons (like Chris')
  065 -
  085 -
  089 -
  102 -
  500 - full width partition between cab and load compartment (like Chris')
  717 -

Thanks,
Maynard
