Dear Dianne,

Go to any good junkyard to find the "pocket". Shouldn't be any more than $5 (or less). You will need to unscrew it from the rear of the driver's side panel. When installing it on the passenger side, be sure to locate it back (towards the rear of the van) approx 3" from the stock location holes-- then it works like a charm and looks like it belongs there.

You can see a pix of what it looks like on my website. (follow the MB Quart link). If you look carefully, you can also see that (like an idiot) I drilled holes in the stock locations first -- it sure doesn't work that way!

Cheers,

MJS
