Vanagon Dwellers has some door panels that I like. I've emailed them several times over the last couple of months with no response.

Does anybody know if they're still around?

I don't think they make anything for resale. It's just a blog of what they've done.

My bad - I meant "Vanagon Dwellers", not vanagonhacks.

Vanagon Dwellers existed on Etsy and sold all sorts of Vanagon related stickers, etc., along with custom door panels.

Hey - I bought some stripes for my van about a month ago. They were busy but they definitely did what they said they would. I got the stripes in a reasonable time. No clue where they've gone since.

Just bought a set of stripes myself. 3-4 weeks turnaround, Covid-19 etc.

On Etsy they're at VanagonDwellers.

Did you put the stripes on yet? Haven't gotten to mine yet but hope to next week. Weren't you considering some kind of Native American pattern? I assume they are going on the Westy, not the sweet 2 tone GL.

Thanks. Good to hear they are still doing panels.

I wrote them several times asking for a sample and they said they'd send it but I never got anything and I never heard back from them.

What are your impressions of the panels?

Hey Izzy. They seem to be of good quality, although I have no experience with these things. There are good directions and the pieces are cut to size for each door, panel, etc. I have not attempted to put them on yet though.

They tend to be slow to respond and shipping takes a good while, but I've bought stripes from them that I'm happy with. Keep bugging them and Candy will get back to you.
