Firewall insulation
Hi All,
i'm thinking of taking off my K5 87 dashboard and re-insulate the firwall (thats if its insulated in the 1st place). i always get heat from underneath the dash board. Also i might find several holes that needs patching :))). 1- Any schimatics of how to take the whole dashboard off? 2- do you recommend a certain material for insulation? 3- Can i permanently stop the car from taking fresh air (Either AC is ON or OFF)? pics? 4- can i do it myslef? :))):icon_teeth: 5- anyother surpises i should expect? 6- anyother thing that i can fix/adjust while the dashboard is off (i won't take it off again):icon_angel: |
Ive had mine down to the steel frame. you get a lot more access when you remove the dash pad, gauge cluster, and the A.C. ducts. There are parts that are still hard to get to though.
As far as cutting off the fresh air...you can put an old T-Shirt in the air door on the right side kick panel. It will rest fine in the plastic half-bowl looking thing. ( I'm not into half-ass ideas like this, but mine was like this when I bought it and it worked well). |
