One of the accessories for camping I have included in my VW camping arsenal came via the list from, I believe Malcolm Stebbins some time ago now, but it bears repeating as I have found it to be a very useful thingy. Cut the bottom from a plastic milk crate (or two) and use as an all-weather doormat/shoe cleaner on the ground outside the sliding door of your van. I find it particularly useful when on skiing trips in the van. The only reason you'll ever need to replace it is if some bastard pinches it when they see what a good idea it is. I chose a blue crate so it even kinda matches my van....;-) Anyway, props to Mr Stebbins for the original suggestion. It is simple, durable, cheap and very effective. All the hallmarks that us VW community generally appreciate...:-) Cheers, Steve O NSW Australia '92 Transporter WBX Kombi '00 Transporter Double Cab '03 Transporter Double Cab (work truck) '78 Land Rover Series 3 109 soft top ute (ex-Aust.Army) |
