My '75 kombi has one fan only (on the left), the other is missing.

It's really noisy, and to be honest it doesn't offer any great advantage over just having the front vent open. I never use it. So if I were you I wouldn't bother.

The fans fit in all teh bay window front vents and work very well.

If they are noise I suggest you check to make sure the blades are clearing the steel outer sleeve when spinning.

It allows you to get air moving when the van is not.

I forget that most of you live in cities with traffic. For me, the van is always moving 😎

They are not uncommon, any VW wrecker that has Kombi's would more than likely have some, I was at Stokers Siding and they had some in some old Kombi's out the back, you could try them!
