Go to BusLab in Berkeley. Marco and Steve are Vanagon experts. They are at 2036 Blake Street, just west of Shattuck. Their shop is also walking distance from the Berkeley BART station. You might even get some good advice while they sell you the part. They also have some used parts for sale. If you are too busy or not experienced enough to work on your own van, they are excellent mechanics.
