I love the long front ends for inside comfort too, my old Chevy van had the engine right next to my leg. I don't miss that.

Sounds like a defective head unit, AM antenna are internal, maybe it was never hooked up.

Super frugal solution for car top carriers

It might be easier to use aluminum flat stock, lower profile and it should be stronger. It would still leave space under it to thread rope or straps. This is a great idea though. -

I think a v6 is underpowered for the size of the vehicle. I have no idea about the harness fire, but I can bet you the v8 will last a lot longer since it's not working near as hard. -

It's the same parts for the newer vans, nothing has changed. There is no filter for the rear air so everigets sucked into the vent. The rear return vent is located behind the driver's seat. I would do some inspecting in there and see if it's clogged with junk.

When welding you put a lot of tension between the spots that are welded and the surrounding metal. I had an engineer in our shop a couple weeks back and for him he always tempers any metal that's been welded on his screen printing presses to relieve that tension. It makes perfect sense to me. -

A heat gun or plumbing torch helps the vinyl conform to the curves. We do some vinyl at our shop. It can be fun and challenging. I like the white bumper, that looks cool -
This is how most shops bill because it's how the mechanics get paid. If the dealership didn't bill it the shop down the road would. It's a fair price. The guy has probably done a lot of them and has it down. Mechanics make good money because they are usually worth it.

Yeah, you know those evil Japanese, they just hate healthy children. ;) The funny thing is the transit I test drove had no rear air at all.
-
It's strange that others are having problems, we are in ga, never an issue. Are you making sure to adjust the air as cold as it goes with the controls on the ceiling? My wife thought it auto adjusted with the main controls.

Running boards. They are a must for the kids getting in and out.

Mine did include a professional install, I think labor was half of that. Good luck taking a dent out of chrome without it looking like a mess.

Bumper and install costs $1500. Been through this already. My fog light was busted too.
