Heater A/C housing?
I need a new housing for my Heater and don't know where to get one (other than from the wreckers or a parts truck) Does anyone know where i could buy one and how hard it would be to change out?

Re: Heater A/C housing?
Like you mentioned, I guess only out of a parts truck. I haven't come across anyone that offers it (other than maybe the dealership).
It's not too difficult to replace. The nuts around the lower perimeter of the case near the fender are the toughest to get to, but can be had with a universal joint and a long extension bar. The toughest part for me was removing the heater hoses. I had to cut one of them off to get them off. Since you're replacing the case, you may want to consider replacing the heater core especially if it's the original. What's the condition of the blower motor as well?.

My fender wells are out so i'm hoping its not too hard to change. My tire hit the motor and busted it right off which in turn busted the housing so i will have to go with a new motor as well.
