Here's a bit of Vanagon Trivia I don't recall being brought up before. I have a '91 Multivan here for service and was out driving it the other day and I notice something strange about the door's map pocket. Upon closer inspection I find it is longer, 19 " to be exact, than the ones on all other Vanagons I've seen and it is grey with a black stripe. Now what's that all about ? So off to ETKA for some info. Well, yes, the Multivan was given a special door map pocket that all other models were deprived of. Part # 255 867 131 6AW, lite grey, 19" long. The well known, other door map pocket, in brown or black is part # 281 867 133 plus code for Brown or Black. Don't know if they are still available as I've not called my dealer.....yet.......tomorrow ! Sure would be nice to have MORE storage space (:-) Happy Holidays !
