I see there's a set of these on ebay for $180. I plan on buying a sunroof
Vanagon eventually, are these a common problem? Should I snag them now or
are they available easily elsewhere? Is the sunroof repairable by the DIYer
or not possible. I've seen many with their roofs siliconed shut, just
wondering why they don't just fix it. What else goes wrong with these
monster air vents?

AllDataDIY.com.  The site says it has information about my van but I'm
unsure.
