Re: van column

Check out the FAQ index in my link and there is a pretty good writeup on the conversion with pics linked in there somewhere.

Re: van column

There are a few mods and I believe you can get an adaptor for the wiring, but if you have basic mechanical skills it looks doable. I haven't done it myself but it didn't look too awful hard to do.
