Plate cover.... sorry about the confusion.I posted on the Classifieds looking for Dealer heater set up,.. but this is on my car..and missing the front cover.... I can't seem to identify the missing front plate..... the car was a heater delete with only a defroster knob......
I should really know the part i am looking for before asking....sorry guys.. can someone identify what is missing here....The manuals I have don't show this in the schematics .........
Shoudn't be to tough to come up with.
Are you worried about it getting cold up there?

HA HA. no Pat..... the car was a heater delete car. but who knows over its life what it was messed with... I am not sure if that dealer installed heater is the same unit or not
I at the very least would like to de fog or defrost the windshield ha hahahah
Not only is the cover/trim missing but so is the heater core. Does the fan work? These heaters worked but didn't defog/defrost well.
Yesterday morning was 28F degrees...I think that's below 0 for our Canada friends. Parked the Coleman right next to me on the front seat. Toasty in no time.

Fan works very well, and I have 2 good heater cores...I may hit up a local Princess auto and get a small electric heater the will fit..But I was wondering what the front cover plate looks like....

Steve Pierce in twentynine palms has at least one car with the basic heater in it. I would be surprised if did not have parts for them. 310-631-0053
For safety, l personally would not want an electric heater.
Like Gasman said you need the face plate and the heater core. In your picture the heater hose holes on your back plate do not seem to line up with any holes in the firewall. You may have to snake the hoses to existing firewall holes. Think twice about making holes in your firewall. Wish l was there to help you with this.
Gasman.... thanks for the link..but he won't sell to my address...But thanks Gary!
Ray...Thank you!
Jay... the Holes fro the unit are obscured by the dark behind the unit.No new holes will be made.Thanks Jay!
I found a local friend that has a complete unit.so all may be good....
Jeff.....keep us posted. I may have a complete unit also if your friends' doesn't work out. I think my old one is in storage at our old house. I hadn't posted earlier because I was releuctant to pull a part off a complete unit in case somebody needed it all.

Rich.Will Do!
I will see my local friend within the next 2 weeks...I really like the Heater delete aspect..but .. I have decided I really do need a heater.
I have 2 factory heaters, but I like the simplicity of the Dealer unit.Thank you!
