I have a set of these for my Toyota Surf and they are gnarly...would like to
get a set for the Vanagon as well.  What model number did you use?  I only
noticed a listing for the Eurovan on their website.

I remember reading an online article about these airbags (including what
model #) on one of the Vanagon websites a few years back but can't seem to
find it again.

regards,
Brad
