Vanagon Subwoofer
I bought a Rhino Design Studio Center Console for my Vanagon from GoWesty.com (Van-Cafe.com also sells them) with the sole intent of modifying it in order to house a subwoofer. These consoles are made on a per order basis so expect about a 4 week delivery date which I didn't have a problem with.

How I Found My Vanagon
I've been in the market to buy a Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia camper for the past few months and I had no idea they were so hard to find. Well, let me rephrase that. There are plenty out there BUT they don't last on the market long at all so if you're not the first person to look at it chances are you won't be the new owner of the vehicle. Over the past 4 months I've found 3 in the state of Texas that were actually worth buying but once I called they were already sold. Ugh!

Installing A New Floor
Back in July 2013 when I flew to Phoenix to take a look at this 1987 Vanagon Westfalia I found on Craigslist I knew one of the things I did not like about it was the floor a previous owner had installed. It was a 2"x2" ceramic tile complete with mastic and grout which means a lot of added weight plus it wasn't too easy on my eyes.
