Rear Table Mod
Ever since I purchased my 1987 Vanagon Westfalia 3 years ago I've always hated camping/traveling with either of my front or rear stock tables. They always seem to get in the way and the rear long table made it difficult to open the rear vertical closet door. On my next road trip, I need access to a table top so I can edit photos and blog while on the road so it got me to reevaluate my table situation.

A Recovery Story
A couple of weeks ago I saw a post on the VW WESTFALIA Facebook group about possibly spotting a stolen van on the Los Angeles CBS Nightly News. Rusty made this post along with a screenshot asking if anyone was a aware of a maroon hightop Vanagon that might be missing.

Adding a Water Temp Sender
I wanted a secondary water temperature gauge installed in my van so I can visually see a number on how my water temp is running. My stock gauge still works and this addition does not replace it. It's just a secondary gauge to keep tabs on your system. I've added one to my own van and this documentation is from adding one to another member's vans.
