        My 90Westy VDubaru was originally from Canada & it therefore has the
"ShorePower" door located down near

the bottom. The door gives access to the male end of the "ShorePower"
ExtensionCord & the reason for it being in

that low position seems to be so that the S'P'E'Cord can be pushed
into a storage area that is down & more out of

the way & maybe more conveniently located for the other end to be
permanently connected into the Van wiring.
