WOW, that's nice and bright!.

Is that center seatbelt factory? My bus has one too but is a different buckle type, although still vw. Yours appears to be different as well?

Looks awesome, Geoff! How's the exterior paint coming along?

Got that muffler painted and installed, by the way (had to grind the bolts off of the old EMPI POS). Thanks again!
