Hello. This is my first post so forgive me if I'm in the wrong section. I have an 82 westy that I have been piecing back together for a few years now. I have always notice screw holes above the rear seat passenger side window but never knew what they were for until I came across a vanagon sales brochure online. Looks like plastic decorative/trim piece that covers the curtain rod?? Anyone have a name or part number?? Where I could find one?? Any information is appreciated. Thanks.

Hard to find in good condition. They are usually deteriorated.

Looks like the following picture.

I had a replacement made up from aluminum.

Thanks for the reply. That is it! Any idea where to find one?? I've never seen one listed for sale on samba. Definitely hard to find. Is there a part number on it? Thanks again.

Only came on a few years.
In the last three years I have seen exactly one for sale, and I bought it. The plastic deteriorates after 30 years - becomes very brittle.
No idea on a part number.

Since you are one small state south, I do have my broken one that you could use as a template to have an aluminum one made?
