I don't know if the vent shades not fitting is related or not, but I have had problems with accessories that fit European Vanagons that won't fit the US models. Specifically, I know that the dash is different between the later US and Euro models, and I ran into a problem with a grey water tank that won't fit either. I'm surprised that there is such a difference between the models and wonder if anyone knows what all the differences are so I can avoid ordering the wrong non-fitting parts in the future.
