I would like to check into bringing an EVC back to the USA.  I think
     VW would advise how feasible this was, if I had the vehicle serial
     number (VIN number).  The serial number of any Canadian vehicle would
     answer this question, even if that particular vehicle wasn't for sale.
     Can any of you Canadian EV (Eurobago) owners tell me the VIN number of
     a Eurobago originally sold in Canada?.

Here's a tip on the annoying paper blind on the
sliding door.  I glued a velcro dot on the inboard
side of the blind frame, and a short neat (velcro cable
tie) piece of double-sided velcro on the outboard side.
The blind no longer droops, is instantly available to
close, and is silent.

The major noise in my 1995 is from the rear bench.  We
keep it in the rearmost position most of the time, and it
makes some fierce squeaks.

I installed a 2" receiver hitch, and it is great.  I have
a couple of inserts for it.  I usually just have a bike rack
on it, but last summer towed a lightweight covered trailer full
of bikes and tools from Ontario to Utah, Colorado and back.
No problem.

I have the distinction of having had a Winnebago poptop crack
(virtually in two!).  The replacement top has not sat as snugly
on the van.  Nonetheless, I think that fine adjustment can
be mad as easily as you suggest, by finessing the threaded
holddown and its nut.
