hEATER BLOCK OFFS??

Looking to clean up the firewall and later on go with aftermarket heat/air cond. Where can I get the heater delete plates for now, not ready to do the whole install just yet. Just trying to smooth out the firewall right now. Thanks, Fred.

Thanks Keith. Thought I saw some that were seperate pieces and even some that reshaped the upper area to match the drivers side. maybe i am imagining things, you know how everything runs together after awhile.
