A/C Firewall Delete
A/C Firewall Delete Im recently started my a/c delete project and kept the heater.. Here is what it looks like so far.. Thanks to The Merv for some info!! But have to get the interior back in still and try it out.. Also removed the passenger air bag and bracket while I was at it..
Dremel worked fine..just took a few minutes. Just get in there and cut pretty much. 
Eventually I'm going to re-design the Heater Box though..I don't have the flow like I used to..I have alot of holes that the Blower Motor blows air through..you will see what I mean when you get in there and start cuttin into it.

. what would you have done differently? i have the inside of the box cut already for the air passage and the plate made up. all i have left is to cover the hole in the box with tin and bolt on the plate. any info would be great, i really don't want to do this twice I actually took the dash out and took the heater and all out, cut it outside the car and put it back in.. Not saying it was the easiest way to go, but I wanted to ditch the airbags and stuff while the dash was out anyways..
Here is a pic on how I did mine. I flushed the box to the firewall. Then made a sheet metal panel with a opening in it to allow airflow to cross from one side to the other.
It was attached with urethane seam sealer and sheet metal screws. No air leaks.
Sorry for the bad pic.

It's been so long since I did this. I remember a wire (not the vacuum line) that went to the A/C Evaporator. I think it was a temperature sensor. What did you guys do with it?
