Hey all, anybody know where this goes? It's been floating around the van for a while and I'm pretty sure it came from somewhere in the back like the pop top or sliding dooor?

Looks like the weather strip piece that covers the locking/latching part on the "C" pillar. That is the rear part of the opening. It goes on the vertical center of the pillar where the latch is. _________________ This free advice is worth exactly what you paid for it.

x2, although your looks to have been carved up a bit - usually it's one piece the whole height of the door.

Only later models - not sure if it was there before 86. _________________ 86 White Wolfsburg Westy Weekender

My 1985 has it.
My 1985 seems to have almost all the later details, but unfortunately has the early fuse box. Kind of strange. |

It's normal, my 85 is the same way. Transition period.
The rubber flapper thing is to cover the mechanism hole that is not present on earlier sliding doors. _________________ Silicone Steering Boots and 930 Cv boots for sale in the classifieds.
