Found Some Hen's Teeth! Both Heater Delete Plates AND.....

been looking for an interior heater delete plate to match the firewall plate I bought some time back.

not only did I find an interior plate, but with it came a firewall plate AND something I have never seen..... the interior firewall jute insulation and fiberboard backing that covers the void where the heater was.

finally, a little luck has come my way. 'bought time.

Sin, I'll eventually run them.... might install them this winter since the front clip may be removed.

if anyone needs a template, pm me anytime. I've supply a few members with one already.

Re: Found Some Hen's Teeth! Both Heater Delete Plates AND.....

How hard would it be to have these re-popped, or even made out of carbon fiber? Tcb-1, I will be envious until I get one for myself. BTW, what goes in the defrost holes on top of the dash in a heater delete truck?

Re: Found Some Hen's Teeth! Both Heater Delete Plates AND.....

Awesome score Doug! It's nice to actually put a picture in the mind of how this thing is supposed to look. You my friend have definitely scored on this deal as well as your other recent purchase...

Can't wait to see some more pics of whatever you might be working on.

Re: Found Some Hen's Teeth! Both Heater Delete Plates AND.....

That's definitely not something you see everyday. Are you planning on running heaterless or are you doing something else? Like running an aftermarket air system and using that block off instead of their plastic one?
