I had some extenders made for a bug in my van for a while but they
always came loose and fell off the door.  The bug's used set screws on
the side as opposed to the vanagon, Golf/Jetta, Fox... cranks that use a
screw through the axis of the crank base.  The bug extenders I had were
made by Rocky Mountain Motorworks which I found at a swap meet.

The Zender extenders are nicer looking also, they are the full diameter
of the crank base so they don't look out of place.  I am currently using
post-88 Golf/Jetta window cranks in my Vanagon because they are more
stout and are less prone to having the handle break off.  They are all
black too, no chrome.
