Sean,

My dealings with BusBoys has been very limited but somewhat foreboding.  I
contacted them three times in three months to get a catalog.  The catalog
arrived minus the price list.  I can deal with that.  I called about
seatcovers for my Westy and was told they would have to check if they are
still available and get back to me.  That was two months ago and I haven't
heard a thing.  I did get the price list about three weeks ago -- roughly a
month after I threw out the catalog.  Sewfine lists seat covers for the
Vanagon in their catalog which I recieved about two weeks after I asked for
it.  They are fairly expensive, but I can't say if they are more or less
expensive than the TMI's BusBoys may or may not offer.

I also requested a catalog from TMI and have yet to recieve it.
