Re: Solar Panel for EVC
Check out these flexible panels from Unisolar. I have one wired up to my deep cycle battery with a long extesion cord. I just leave it either on top of the sink/stove or in the back of the van and

Re: Temperature Gauge
Eckhard, My gage has read a bit lower (1-2 notches) ever since I had the gages repaired. I'm not sure why it is but I've learned to recalibrate. Ron

Re: Contacting VW direct
Jerry, I guess my approach would be different and is based on having fairly good success with my local dealer here in New Jersey. For example, I felt they were very fair in the handling of my seam

Re: 2nd Battery

Compass on the dash
Rich, I noticed on your web site that you mounted a compass on the dash. I had one in the exact spot but mine did not work there at all. I must have a magnetic field there. According to mine I was

2nd Battery
I thought I sent this a couple of weeks ago but maybe my email ate it. I am thinking of putting a deep cycle type battery in my 93 EV-MV to run a TV or small refrigerator while camping. Has anyone

Re: Solar Panel for EVC
Gary, Gerry Edge has an excellently done panel on his '97. It is a larger panel and can keep him charged for a three or four day stay without burning the engine. His bike rack is first class, too.

Re: '99 MV wanted + advice?
You may want to compare the seating arrangement on the 2000 EV MV versus the 1999. In Germany the MV model (called Multivan there) now has a nice modular center seat arrangement that allows the
