1Bad454 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Does anybody have any pictures of how the under dash insulation is supposed to go on? I bought a kit from OPG and it didn't have any directions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stangeba Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Many years ago I had to replace the heater core in my 71 (NO A/C) Monte. I put this picture collage together showing what I did, called the snowball effect, not much about the insulation, I think I just pushed the pins into the firewall, and I don't remember where I bought it from. With or withOUT A/C is important. I hope something in this group of pictures will help you some. (Click on the hot link) Good luck! https://1971montecarlo.wordpress.com/2019/04/26/heater-core-replacement-on-a-1971-monte-carlo-no-a-c/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC-71 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Is it the firewall insulation that installs with your heater box removed or is it the insulation that goes above the first mentioned. if so throw it away and buy the insulation with the sticky back and cut to fit.

1Bad454 Posted September 8 Author Share Posted September 8 It's not the fire wall insulation it's called an under dash insulation. Here is the link to it that has a picture of it. https://www.opgi.com/interior-accessories/dash-accessories/underdash-panel-insulation-reproduction/insulation-under-dash-68-72-a-body-R53299B.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC-71 Posted September 9 Share Posted September 9 Yes that’s the insulation. I couldn’t figure it out myself. That’s why I used the insulation with the sticky stuff on the back. Worked much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
