FYI Volks, The volks at GOWESTY (www.gowesty.com) have been selling all sorts of Westy/multivan/Vanagon carpeting in all sorts of shades and configuration for a few years now. I intend (one of these days when everything else is near perfect on my van) to finally get an area carpet for the converted Multivan seating arrangement in my 89 Syncro Westy. I've seen their carpet samples and I don't think it gets much better. There is a custom one for Westy with the 5th seat with holes aligning to the floor. Keep'in warm in Rochester NY. Joel ditto what Derek said about any financial interests....
