Interesting to notice some of the differences in the SA Vanagon, like the
two LED warning lights mounted below the hazard light switch and the multi
punned socket on the steering column cover. What is that for? OBDll? I like
the storage tray on the dash and also the tray below. Looks like a bigger
cover around the shift boot, too. Nice improvements.
