Heater AC duct seals

[dmjlambert]

I like buying the set. I got mine from Outback Truck Parts instead of LMC, but they may be the same manufacturer that LMC offers. The set comes with the large rubber ring that goes around the fan opening, and I would not want to try to form my own seal around there. It would take more patience than what I have, and the set of seals was not very expensive. It was easy to just put the seals in place and re-mount the boxes and I was done. If you take your A/C apart and find you have a metal fan that is excessively rusted and you want to stay with metal, Manes Truck Parts has metal fans. Pretty much everybody else has plastic fans. And National Parts Depot has Brass/copper heater cores if you would rather not have aluminum that is offered by pretty much everybody else.

Mine are plastic. LMC's is plastic also. Thanks for the info. Do you have to remove the hood hinge to get to replace the seals?
