Re: Solar Panel for EVC
Check out these flexible panels from Unisolar. I have one wired up to

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.

Jerry,
I guess my approach would be different and is based on having fairly good

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

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.

You may want to compare the seating arrangement on the 2000 EV MV versus the

Re: Contacting VW direct
Jerey,
Although I agree with your idea if VW doesn't respond to a letter, shouldn't
the first step be to contact a VW rep and see if they will repair it? I
think you need to go through this first
