Heater Seal


Recommended Posts

How strange. Fair enough, it's definitely a plate! :P

The part I describe must be part of the dash duct then. A simple way of creating a lip to centre it in the hole perhaps.

I know the bit your on about mate, mine had one on an '86.

Having just repaired my heater box and refitted with the new STC952 seal (which does look far too big...). I thought I had managed to get it into place ok but having taken off the dashboard I noticed the rubber didn't form a good seal with the bulkhead. Having tried again and again I found the only way to get the seal to fit into place was to use some trim fix to stick the seal to the heater box.

I also used much longer bolts than came out of the bottom fixing on the box in order to give me a fighting chance of getting the box into place, swapping them for smaller bolts one at a time once the box was tight.

I changed my seal today when I changed the matrix. I glued it into place as the original was glued from the factory.

I managed to get the two bottom bolts in but the top bolts would get nowhere near until I got the help of Mr Ratchet Strap.
