Subject:Full-Size SLIDING DOOR SCREENS $79!

I'm happy to announce a new product, heretofore unavailable in the U.S.
These sliding door mosquito screens cover the entire sliding door area of
your Vanagon, and have a zipper in the middle for easy access in and out of
the van.  Now you can leave your sliding door open when camping, keep the
bugs out, and still get in and out easily.

These are really nice repros of the original Westfalia sliding door screen,
optional in Germany but never offered in the U.S.  I located an original
German one and had it repro'd.  It's almost dead-on except that the color of
the zipper material is a slightly different shade.

It looks very similar to the Westfalia rear hatch mosquito screen sold here
(except for the addition of the zipper for easier access).  It snaps into
place using the same type snaps as the rear hatch screen.  The snap
recepticles/screws you will need are included; they simply screw into the
interior of the van around the sliding door area.  You can use it in any
Vanagon, whether or not it is a camper.

There is a special list member price of $79.95.  I have only 6 so far, 3
brown and 3 gray, and they will be offered first-come, first-served; once
they're gone my next batch is coming in about two weeks.  I expect this to
be a really hot item, but I'll do everything I can to keep up with demand.

You can order by e-mail, phone, or the website.  If you order via the
website, the part numbers are 253 069 603 for brown, or 255 070 413 for
gray.  You can search by part number, or you can find them on the camper
parts, interior parts, exterior parts, and bargains pages.  NOTE:  The price
on the website is $10 higher, but don't worry.  We will still deduct the $10
from your order *IF* you notate in the "additional information" comments
area on the website order form that you are a list member.
