if your removing it..you already have a template..use the inner or outter piece as the template..transfer to a piece of aluminum or sheetmetal..clamp to desk and cut with angle grinder or even metal shears..then for the holes drill the marked holes out or you can use a nail and a block of wood as a punch..paint,bead of silicon and then bolt in..pretty simple

You can remove the engine compartment side of the box, the part behind the dash has to stay for heat.

I got me a piece of aluminum today, I also have a nice piece of stainless I can make it out of.


Merv give me the link where you made yours please.

I have a template if you need it...Threehonks has the same template so I know it fits...

its for the engine bay side and allows you to keep the heat..

Could someone hook me up with a template? I can't get my car in the garage right now and I want to be able to have this on hand when I do. I want heat and power steering, just no A/C.
