Something to ponder ...

The 7 passenger models (my '84 for instance) doesn't have the battery
box vent that the Westy has on the passenger side.  Maybe it's because
they didn't expect people to live in those.

BTW, I'm thinking about putting a piece of screen over that hole in my
Westy.  I haven't had a problem so far, but that would be a great
ingress for rodents without screening.
