thank you Miguel. It's only by chance that I looked into that duct, since it's hidden in the pillar not a lot of people had a chance to look at it. I have 2 more vanagon to look at too. Just in case the air duct is un-usable I bought at Lowes an aluminum flexible duct 3" diameter and 8" length - Lambro Semi-rigid flexible Aluminum duct - Product # L301
