All,

My wife surprised me (by buying something for MY van) for my birthday
and got me one of them "fancy dash".  It was well packaged and was
pretty easy to get it trimmed to fit in my 89 Westy Syncro.  It took
about an hour (because I'm an engineer) to get it to fit on the
existing dash with just the triming of one edge.  I mounted it with 3
screws (not supplied) and it fits great.
I've been hearing a few squeeks and will put some felt cushy to keep
the vibrations from driving me nuts.  I plan to integrate several key
VDO gauges and the Digitool LED monitor into the face of the dash.
It should be easy.

Other than that this is a great addition to any Vanagons and looks
like it belongs.

Thanks Steve & Eurocampers.

Joel
