Ron, does your unit include a *stainless steel* drain replacement that will fit flush with the sink bottom in a late-model Westy? The after market kits that I have tried all include chromed plastic drains and strainers; they are junk, and do not fit flush with the bottom of the sink. (As a result, the sink will not empty completely, and you always have this collection of crud that won't wash down...) I have even tried going to a plumbing contractor's supply house and purchase the correct size drains in stainless steel, but they do not fit either. (Now I have quite a collection of these stupid little drains...) -Brent ----- Original Message ----- From: "The Bus Depot" <vanagon@BUSDEPOT.COM> To: <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM> Sent: Monday, April 29, 2002 2:19 PM Subject: Re: Need 84 Westfalia Sink Drain Part
