Inexpensive Interior Lighting
Interior lighting in my Vanagon has been a struggle for me. I've always wanted to upgrade my lighting and add more but I haven't been able to decide on any one particular style of LED lighting option. I've probably ordered no less than a dozen different types of LED lighting solutions in order to install but haven't been happy with any of them. I felt I needed something in order to hold me over until I find the perfect solution. Who knows, this may be it.

Oil Pressure & Temperature Gauge Pod
Fellow TexasVanagons member Kevin came out to our Houston Area campout with his 1987 Vanagaon Westfalia camper and this gave me a good opportunity to take a few photos of what I think is the cleanest gauge pod available on the market today. I've searched high and low for gauge pods for the Vanagon and even pods for all other makes and models looking to adapt them to our Vanagons. Nothing really caught my attention.

Blazecut Automatic Fire Suppression
One of the first things an experienced Vanagon owner tells someone who just purchased their first Vanagon is "CHANGE YOUR FUEL LINES!". Often times these 20+ year old vehicles have their original, dry rotted fuel lines which have caused many vans to burn to the ground. Not good.
