Boring stuff, but I've set this week as heater core week, which has really
turned into more of an hvac, and dash/center console refurbishment week.
Could be a reality series for nutballz.
Looks like a homeland security violation in the making.
Post wash and GI treatment, putting the two halves back together, I had to
tape some wires to the 5 flap shafts in order to align them with the holes
on the other half section:

still a challenge.
All put back together.  A marvel of plastic engineering:

It took me 2 hours to clean, lube and reassemble but no screws left over.  I
spent too much time thinking, "wtf is this and where does it go?"
Taking a lot of pre disassembly pics for reference "would" have saved some
time.
I prolly should test the blower motor, but hey, it's Meyle, made in China.
Tonight I hope to at least get it back into position and see if it works,
leaving all the dash center console for weds. / thurs.
I am thinking to move the boost gauge up to where some switch slugs are and
the V1 remote somewhere else too.  Dunno where though.
Stay tuned.
Bill~w/only fuel lines (and other stuff) to fix after this~M
