fair nuff sounds good you running the heaters in it or jsut going to take out the core?

from memory the heater outlets will foul on the rocker cover

hickmanioz- 04-16-2009
heaters = GONE

its not hard to mod the heater core hardest part is dash out.

think from memery turned it upside down in the aircon box by jugging the pipes desoldering and turning one and the other had to plug and relcate slighly to come out where the xd ones come out.

wouldnt of worred myself if i didnt have to go over the pits.


that tennis ball resisting the forces of grafity is freaking
me out on the drivers window top photo.

yeh heaters in rainy weather overrated haha just like heat shielding in a certain pink EA and no working air con haha.

IMO if you want the luxuries take out the daily and in both our cases we own BA's win win all round.

hickmanioz- 04-17-2009
You are spot on there gav If i want to be cool or warm while driving ill take the BA out. Its not gonna be a daily anyway just a cruiser when im bored she will mostly be garaged for the rest of my life smile.gif
