Not all SD508's are the same. Different versions had different mounts on the back. I have new ones for about $175 as I recall (writing from home right now), which have the correct pads for a Vanagon. '83 to early '86 Vanagons all had the same pads on their 508's, but some VW cars had different pads, so check your van's layout before junkyard hunting. If you have a mid-86 on, you don't have a 508 at all; they used two other compressors.
