Does anyone know the dimension of heater ductng that supplys air to the 4 windcreen air vents under the dash and also the smaller piece of ducting that clears  door window?( On a 463)

Mine got a bit split during dash/windsreen strip, thought I could live with it, but getting frustraing at this time of year with condensation. I could strip dash top again but wanted to do it in a day.

Re: Heater Ducting

I don't known the size, but it is easy to check. Remove your glove box and this should give you access to the side window vent that you could either remove or measure insitu.

If you are equipped air conditioning, use it, even when blowing hot air as the dehumidifier in the air conditioning system will absorb moisture from the circulating air and help reduce condensation. To do this quickly have the cabin air set at recirculating as opposed to fresh intake of air.
