heater control cable/Valve

Post by msh209 »

Hello,
I am looking for some tips on installing a new heater valve cable for my 1990 mk2 scirocco. I am hoping its not a pig of a job. On my car it feeds through on the left side of the car --looks that maybe I can remove the glove box to feed it through the firewall and the heater knob facia to get access to the control unit--- I dont know! so thought i'd ask here to see if I can get some help before I make hard work of it and do something daft like try and remove the whole dash ....All responses greatly appreciated, thanks

you can easily access it when you remove the lower center console and then remove the 2 screws holding the heater control panel in place
this will allow it to drop down so you can remove the cable
it certainly isnt a dash out job


I dont mind project cars but I HATE SANDING!!!
