Personally I really appreciate the stock 2.1 2WD vanagon fuel filter mount..
very clever..
one screw, and it does two functions..
it clamps the filter, and it mounts it to the frame - nice.

if the ones you are seeing are all rusted and hard to deal with ....I could
understand tossing it.
Otherwise, it's a very nice part, nothing wrong with it at all.

send them to me.
I can find good homes for them.
Scott
