Heater/Defroster flexible duct?

Post by J7M46sn »

What are you guys doing/using to replace the flexible tubing used in the heater/defroster duct works? Mine is all dry-rotted, crumbling, cracked and hardened. It's junk...

Thank you! I found some of those things on Ebay, and wondered if it was the same stuff, seems like it is!

Check retail price before you buy on eBay. Some eBay sellers are good and sell cheap; some sellers throw up anything unusual at inflated prices to catch the unaware. Try your local old-time parts store, or RockAuto, or Amazon.
