Re: [T3] RMMW, Type 3 owners will likely loose :-( My little rant


Until I saw that last shot I couldnt picture where they went!
Im also unaware that they were even made in the aftermarket, they are not a
standard supplied peice.

I imagine the DDB could supply that section, probably with the whole rocker
as well :-)
I know of some good ones in the back woods of Virginia...
