I am talking about the flap in front of the propane tank, behind the front
driver's side wheel well.  I bought one a long time ago from Van Cafe.
They no longer have them.  I think they are the one that lists the part,
but then with the caveat that it is no longer available.  Like the other
online vendors, they carry two flaps, one for each front wheel well, but
they require drilling the body to attach them.  And, one has to buy both.
