Yes.  I sell them for $39.95/pair, for '86-91 only.  They clip on, so no
permanent modification is required.  Considering the cost of replacing
lenses on late model Vanagons, they're good insurance against stone chips.
I have a set on my own '89 for just that reason.  They also look fantastic
when paired with the genuine VW '86-91 bra I sell for $109, since it is
correctly cut out for the square headlights (as opposed to the aftermarket
bras which are generic for all years).   I'm out of stock on the headlight
covers right now but I do expect more in about 10 days.
