Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Corvette / December 2007Looking for defroster vent cover for 82
Hello, I'm in the middle of restoring an '82 Corvette. We're about half way through the dash. I've not been able to find out what the center defroster vents are supposed to be covered with and none of my pictures from other cars show this detail. Corvette America and Ecklers don't appear to list such an item. Thanks in advance, David > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > David why would you cover your "center defroster vents" ?  Signature'Key ===== > why would you cover your "center defroster vents" ? Most cars have a grillwork to direct the airflow. Since I don't have a comparable era car to look at I thought the group might have an idea. Are you implying that the dash simply covers the ductwork and there is no grill to prevent something from falling in? Looks like it's just a slit with diverters molded in. Pictures in the link below. If you are interested, you could join and ask the guy that disassembled the dash and took the pictures. http://www.digitalcorvettes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=89033 >> why would you cover your "center defroster vents" ? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > ductwork and there is no grill to prevent something > from falling in?

I'll look up their site and see what they have. I should get a web site set up for anyone that wants to see a frame on restoration of a 1982 Corvette. I've got more pictures than I know what to do with. Thank you, David >> why would you cover your "center defroster vents" ? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > ductwork and there is no grill to prevent something > from falling in? my bad, I thought you wanted to cover the entire "center defroster vents". my 84 defroster vents are protected. I need more coffee :-) g'day to ya Signature'Key ===== Dr. Rebuild..... ! They sell just about every small part you will ever need...
