I have available a factory-optional sound deadening pad that sits on the engine deck to reduce engine noise further. This was originally a $500 option in Germany (never offered in the U.S.). It can go under your mattress if you have one, but it is carpeted on one side in case you want to use it by itself. It can be snapped into place (matching snap recepticles can be found at Walmart) or just placed on the rear deck. This add-on will be particularly appreciated by rear passengers! Price is $199. http://busdepot.com/details.jsp?partnumber=255863405P1UT - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW _____________________________________________ Toll-Free for Orders by PART # : 1-866-BUS-DEPOT |
