Hi!, Last night I did a little work to the bus. I added 2 dome lights, one in the very back in the doorway of the hatch, and the second in the doorway of the side doors. I have one more i'm gonna put in the engine compartment. As far as the brakes, I think it is the brake return springs. I tried to get them locally to no avail. I ended up ordering a kit from Wolfsburg West that has the springs, clips and cotter pins for $22. Yikes! I tried using some springs I got at the FLAPS (NAPA) and they needed some engineering and helped a little to pull the shoes back, but not enough... It also looks like there is a little bit of leakage around one of the wheel cylinders now, so maybe the seal got munched when the piston blew out... Hopefully I can find a seal kit or something for it... Thom -- Thom Fitzpatrick tfab@netcom.com
