<< Ken, i suspect there are numerous people contemplating the Tierra del
Fuego 2000
 expedition who may be interested in the spare wheel carrier and fuel can
 carrier.  How do these attach to the van?  It's not clear from the photos

Sorry that it took me so long to get back to you on this one Steve.  I just
found out that these bolt to the body and are similar to ones I've seen on
the back of American vehicles with a latch on the rear hatch and hinges
attached to the body next to the hatch.  When you want to open the hatch you
just open the latch and swing the spare tire or spare fuel tank, off to one
side and open the hatch.  These are $298 and are made in Germany by a company
called Ortec.  Let me know if you are interested.
