Jim,

I am looking for one of these panels.  I have the plans drawn up for my
1991 Vanagon.  I know the panels are different from a 1985 version.  Can
you send me some rough dimensions of your panels so that they are the
same?  Do you make any out of 5/8" plywood with laminate cover?

Thanks,
Floys Truskot
