Hi Ben:
        I had taken a keen interest in one of the shots of underneath
your van. I am lead to believe that you have installed a propex
heater under the passenger seat. Am I right?
        When you have the time, I would love to see a topside
pictures of the installation
        I wouldn't have thought there was room enough, and how did
you place the outlets.
Thanks and the rest of the van shows an amazing attention to detail.

                        Thanks for the show.

                                David (dsl82westy)
