Oooooooooo, luv to have that. Actually, I'm looking for the small accessory cup/change/small stuff holder that VW offered for the Vanagons. It mounted on top of the dash and was made in black (other colors?) high-impact plastic. I believe it came with double-sticky tape on the bottom to hold it to the dash or could be optionally secured with tiny sheet-metal screws (I'd hate to drill the dash, wouldn't you?). Don't want it for just myself, but would like to find a nice *MINT* one to use as a pattern to repro from. Have a friend who's into plastics (The Graduate?) and could easily vacu-form or whatever to make them. I've had a lot of customers in the past few years looking for this. Anyone wanna donate for the cause? Oh well, I justa keep ona dreamin' :-) Jim 84 Westy 2.1 62 Beetle (Father was original owner) 90 Fox Wagon Sherwood Automotive * The Old Volks Home (oldvolkshome1@juno.com) (916) 221-5342 On Wed, 23 Jul 1997 14:20:51 -0500 Paul Henderson <pgh@UNX.DEC.COM> writes: >My Bus's DPO built a wooden shelf which runs from the instrument pod's >right side all the way across to the right side of the dashboard.
