Yes Johan, as the Brazilia is basically a split rear with a bay window front we will be able to get panels.
i have posted this in the beginning of the thread and will again now...
go to this site and have a look at pic's of all the panels, bus and beetle ....ignore the prices unless you want to buy in Euro's
but it gives you an idea of most of the available panels.

A pillars - the front two pillars that the front doors hinge on.
the inner valance and outer valance is removed, only the headlight carrier panel is left.
Image
B pillars - behind the driver and the one that the forward cargo door hinges on.
only the pillar on the complete right of this pic is the B pillar...the other two are reinforcement pillars !
Image
Image
C pillar - the one that the rear cargo door hinges on.
Image
Image
reinforcement pillars - the ones on the inside of the long panel running from top to bottom.

here are some additional pics of the air filter tray and the battery tray
