Anyone have any pics or anything, need some ideas. I am looking into some sheet metal that I could bend very easily but the only concern is connecting the ends to get a perfect seal. Also any downside to using sheet metal rather then a plastic ? Would a galvinzed metal be ok, or would it get to hot and burn off. Just being on the safe side, want to double check. I don't think it will but want to hear what others have to say.

Anyone feel free to throw some ideas around since I searched and found nothing on this site about it.

 

What are you making ducts for that is going to get so hot, or require a perfect seal?

 

Well it won't be that hot, its actually gonna take the place of the evaporator.

 

Here is the piece.



After looking at the openings, I might just use some type of cardboard and foam to insulate it. It should not get to hot inside there should it ? I would think if it did it would be a fire hazard for Honda.

 

Heater core?

No, the evaporator.

 

What I did was gutted the evaporator of every thing so all that was left is the black case. Then put it back.

Thats what i did also, getting something else to fit in that spot perfect is a pain in the ***.

Not gonna happen because I don't have the piece anymore. And I don't feel like tracking one down and paying an arm and a leg for one.

 

What car is that for ?

 

it looks like that hard plastic, abs? not sure but if its plastic it cant get too hot. plus metal would radiate any heat that it collected.

IMHO I would glass it and make a mold then make a fiberglass duplicate of one...oh ****...forgot you dont have the piece anymore huh? Junkyard?

 

I gotta a friend at the junkyard and he actually pulled one out of a crx for me, so I'll just be gutting it.
