As a locksmith and Vanagon owner, I, too, had the same problem. I put a cam lock in the spare battery compartment behind the driver's seat. It's just a $5 lock, but I could have used a better one. My thoughts are that with the carpet covering it, Nobody but a fellow Vanagon owner would know about it. Just an idea. Good luck.
