        I'm the friend.  :)

        The van is an 85.

        Today's other enhancement was the installation of new interior
lighting.  I installed two 12volt halogen lights (from ikea, even.  i've had
them sitting around for a year or two) one where the three-bulb incandescent
fixture originally was, and the other centered over the stove and sink.  Sadly
no pictures of them yet.

        I'm still trying to come up with a good way to light the upstairs.
And something above the hatch.

        I also need to figure out where to put the switch for the halogens.
I'm thinking it'll go next to the gauges under the sink.  But I need a bigger
drill bit to make that work.
