Eric,

I just finished rebuilding  my '91 after an engine fire. Everything plastic
melted. Most wires were bare copper. I used most of my Vanagon stash to
rebuild but I can do a set of vent grilles.  Let me know if you still need
'em

That is one heart stopping moment when you notice flames shooting out of
the top vent!

Be sure your fire extinguishers are close and ready people. Mine was and it
saved the camper.
