Default heater delete

I want to turn my car into a factory appearing radio and heater delete car. the car is a 69 chevelle. my thanx to the person who sent me some photos of the 69 yenko chevelle. the radio delete I purchased already. what I want to do is purchase the kit that is available from OPG for a 66-67 chevelle. it appears that the pieces that attach to the firewall are the same? most of the catalogs list the gaskets from 66-72 for the heater box as the same so I'm assuming they will fit. for the piece that fits into the dash I want to strip the housing for the heater controls and outline a piece of plastic and paint it to match. does anyone make a whole setup for this? I have never seen it on a 68 or later chevelle. thanx

Rat Tuned, I have sent you an email that includes the two pages from the 69 Chevelle assy manual showing option C48 heater delete. You can make the dash opening insert with no problem as there is a good drawing of it from the backside of the instrument cluster...............RatPack.............

One other thing I forgot to answer was whether the pieces on the firewall fit. I have been told yes by a friend that installed them on his 68. They should work on your 69 then. Anyone else know for sure..............RatPack............

I bought a set of the repops from Sherman Associates a few years ago (I assume they still stamp them),when they first came out and they were the same shape as the GM pieces but looked like they had been cut out with a chainsaw so I returned them. You'll need to fabricate the block offs for the defroster ducts in the dash.

I've got a friend looking for the firewall pieces for his 69 Camaro. Wonder if these will work??
