Just cut the Face of the Box off flush with the Fire Wall, Siliconed the inside Rim of it, and put that Panel on. Those Hoses are actually the Heater Core, and they just have a piece of a Rag in them until I connect the Heater Lines back up. Everything AC sits outside the Fire Wall, everything Heat sits inside the Car. Junk the AC stuff and make a Panel like that, and you are good.
