What Is The Difference Between Glovebox Liners? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

...What is the difference between the liners from an A/C truck and a non-A/C one?
I have to modify one to work with my new A/C unit. I got the Airtique unit today and it is going to need considerable modification to install. It will look good but it goes all the way across the length of the passenger compt. area under the dash and the hoses will run right into the stock glovebox. I knew this going in so I am not surprised. I will just cut and reshape the cardboard liner until I get it to comply!
Is there a big diff. in the shape of the two? Anyone have any pics?
Thanx!

the only difference is the left side of the box is notched to clear where the factory a/c hoses attach, if you need one that is about 3 inches shallower (from front to back) I have plastic ones I sell (I would have to check the price on them) and they have all the spots marked to make the holes for the mounting screws.

Rick,
I have a plastic one now that came with my Old Air A/C setup. I cannot use it any more since this Airtique unit is considerably different than the Old Air was. I figure it will be easier to "hack" up an aftermarket cardboard one than have to mess with an already considerably smaller plastic one. What do you get for the cardboard ones?

they are 10.00 (w/ the hardware) and the plastic ones I have are the same kind you have

Anyone know where I can see a pic of a plastic one? I've only seen the cardbord ones amd mine recently fell apart. I need something...(w/AC notch).
