Hi all, not sure if anyone can help but i am after a heater box to fit my 1200 it has a custom trans tunnel to fit CA/SR so the standard heater box no longer fits, to get the car to pass engineering the car has to have working front demisters, i am finding it hard to find someone that makes custom heaterboxes and the few custom heater boxes I have come across are fetching up to 800 bucks??
Any help would be appreciated Thanks.

Never thought of that, are they compact enough to squeeze under the dash?

Its a mad dat tunnel, i have had a go at it and the original heater unit is to big it gets in the way of computer, wiring loom and gauges.If I did cut the bottom of the heater off it still wouldnt clear. Plus i would like to get a small unit that can be hidden under the dash.
