Hi all, I rarely use the air con or fans in my car as i like opening windows instead.
One sunny day (a rare occasion in UK), I turned on the climate control/air con and it was on full blast. I was smacked in the face by bits of grey foam pieces from each of the vents. I guess these 'bits' just perished with age. I am wondering if I should replace these - do they do anything special, is it worth repairing? Has anyone done these before - if so, how do you do it? --------------------  san0.:GT-SS2:. |

I noticed that foam stuff when I was replacing some console things a while back. It was deteriorating nicely too
 Anyway, I believe that it is to keep only the circulated air in the system. Since the fuzzy stuff fell apart, I have noticed that even when I have my fan and entire CC system completely off, it still gently pushes some hot air out of the middle vents. -------------------- |
