I often have 3 or 4 1lb disposable canisters under the back seat, or a five pound refillable tank. Would prefer to store them out of the van but what option is there? Also are they safer standing up than on their side? In the end it's a calculated risk I guess. 

Thanks
Jeff

North American Westys got the push in knobs, but no thermocouples !  THANKS probably to either the bean counters at VW or Westfalia !
