--------------------- Hi Kurt, I have been over my 86 pretty thoroughly and feel the only place they can enter is the sides of the front vent / air scoop. Other than that the van closes pretty well. They got into my heater and air ducts last spring and it is a pain to get rid of the stench. I even removed and tore apart the front heater. Keeping the flaps all closed should keep them out of the van.
