Heater Box Removal
I took out my heater only, left my AC and the rest of the HVAC (or more accurately, VAC) system. I just stuffed an old shirt in there for now, maybe I will make a very small block off plate for my setup.
Now i want to know who has removed it all with out pulling the dash..i seen some one said a while back you can do it with just removing the glove box..has anyone else done it like this?

I am in the process of removing the ac box in my car and would like to fab a plate with the channel for the air in order to keep the heat. Does anyone have a DXF for the block off plate? Thank you in advance

Yeah since I have to make it custom I was hoping to get a file that I can just cut on a laser vs buy on and modify it. I'll probably just trace it and fab it up. Maybe if there is any interest I'll make some more, to sell. It looks like there are plenty of people that want to clean up the engine bay, but don't want to give up the heat. As far as I know though there isn't anyone making a piece for it like that.

There's not and I'm still debating on whether to cut it flush with the firewall and utilize the bolt holes to make a plate with a raised tunnel so the fan motor can move the air around or just leave enough of the existing housing sticking out and just make a lid for that. Now I have a way to measure an object using a special instrument and CAD and from that I can export to a DXF, TXT or a CSV file.
