    Reprowesty seatbelt bracket

    The extenders fit an EB fine, but you fit them opposite way. Fitted them to my 68 and 69 now.

    Reprowesty seatbelt bracket

    I would fit a spreader plate and bolt through it. Rivnuts pull out very easily.

    Lowered shocks !

    I’ve got Bilsteins on the front of mine. They’ve made a huge difference to how my 68 drives vs the KYB’s on it before.

    How long have you had your bus?

    I’ve had my 68 for 5 years. Longest time I’ve ever owned a vehicle.

    68 only Sun Visors

    Found the final missing 68 only part for my early 68 Bay, the correct 68 only sun visors. Randomly popped up on FB a couple of days ago. Never seen another set for sale. Well happy to find them, in good condition too.

    What are the Camber settings on an Early Bay, and is it positive Camber or negative Camber?

    On the proper bed there's a metal bracket that folds out to hold the pillow up when in use.

    Parts Wanted Continental Roof Bed wanted

    Hi, I'll get some pics. The mustard linen is stapled to the underside of the board and has the brown (its actually dark red) finishing strip glued on to hide the staples. It might be glued as well, but I've never needed to find out.

    68 wiper arms.

    They are. For a split second I thought that was my bus as mines a 68.

    68 wiper arms.

    They look like 69 on wiper arms as they have a nut bolted to the spindle. 68 only use a grub screw.

    They sell the black plastic inserts that hold the pillow up from NLAVW, nor sure about the metal sockets but you can definitely buy the inserts. I had to replace them on mine as the plastic had failed over time and it kept falling down. Mines an early 68 Westfalia that's had the bunk converted...

    site hook up for camping and day to day trickle charging

    I've got a CBE PC210 system I've installed in mine, control panel is very small and discrete and the charger is a multi stage charger so correctly conditions the leisure battery. It also charges the main battery as it automatically switches between the two. I've got two 240v sockets with USB's...
