Terry if you install any more felt in that van youll
have to hide it from Austin Powers:)

The Pop top Latch on my westy clicks and clacks even
when i remembered to latch it down properly. Its that
metal tongue thing that is "the button" once its
lached, its loose and make noise again right? What
about stuffing some foam in there? but please no more
blue velvet!
