The pods are the rear mounted speakers on non-Westy Vanagons. The
pods are made out of plastic and mount to the ceiling in the rear
corners.

I don't know of any pictures of them anywhere.

I like them because, unlike speakers mounted on the side walls, they
continue working when you are carrying a load of stuff in the cargo
bay. I am not an audiophile, so the lack of 'quality' sound is not
an issue. Otherwise, I would go the high dollar custom route.

I don't need the speaker part, only the plastic housing part. They
were not designed to be repaired, only replaced as a unit. But I
think I may be able to replace just the speaker part.

        mounts on the ceiling.
