you have to have something there, because the ac is in between the blower and the heater. you can do three things

1. leave it alone

2. gut it

3. buy bypass tube for a non ac car

Hmm, might do number 1 for now, and 3 later.

Thanks. :bigthumg:

 

yah that sounds good!



mike

 

Now I see exactly what you mean about the air con being between the heater and blower. I had fun dripping coolant all over my carpet when I removed the blower too.



My car is now just bare metal. :smirk:

 

Oh, btw, can you see the size of the rust hole where the aircon was bolted on near the top of the dash. Arrrghh.

 

yeah the inside rust is not good. hey btw what does an s3 go for over there?



mike

 

hmm, I paid AUS$2200 for this one, but that is really good, the cheapest I've seen is $2000 but it was damaged and unliscensed. Usually about AUS$3500 - $5000 depending on transmission and body condition. (Manuals are more expensive)

 

The rust is very fixable where it is tho.What does the S3's go for there drifter?

 

That much.I paid 800 cdn for mine.But I lucked out too.

 

To find a first gen in really good condition is like trying to find rocking horse ****. Its damn near impossible. Theres about 5 to 10 series 1's (79-81) advertised around for sale in the paper every week, but not many later series. A second gen is about AUS$8000 for a crappy one. There also pretty rare.
