Subject:Re: Idea for Hat Storage in Vanagon

Just want to share an idea. For those of us who carry those broad brim hats
typically worn by kayakers, etc., storage in the van is not always easy. I
installed one of those metal, spring loaded hat holders that are commonly
used in pickup trucks by cowboys. I removed the front screw in the
"headliner" on the driver's side and next to the rear view mirror then
screwed it back in through the hole in the holder bracket. I "aimed" the
holder toward the sliding door for maximum clearance. These holders are not
cheap but they are made well and will last. I got lucky and found one for
thirty five cents at the Good Will.
