I  didn't see the vanagon pen pocket holder, so i wasn't sure if it
was youse!

Yeah, I checked out his very nice pseudo Tristar doka also, but the
Recaros I tested were in the blue westy & the owner said they were
out of a Mitsubishi!  But at that time, I was fully baked from the
sun, so they could have been out of a Yugo.

There was a Vanagon guy there that was selling a very nice set of
leather clad Porsche 911 SC +- seats he said were made by Recaro for
Porsche, for $50!  Would have taken them, but it would have been
tough  to check them as luggage on the plane ride home.

Tom B.-sorry I didn't get to meet youse in person
