We have them to (although right now we are out of stock). They are supposedly Wesfalia made. *http://www.vanagain.com/shop/westfalia-vanagon-kitchen-lid-top-prop/ <http://www.vanagain.com/shop/westfalia-vanagon-kitchen-lid-top-prop/>*

*Oddly enough my supplier says they are for 79-84 Vanagon. They were all the same, so not sure why they are making a distinction.*
