HEATER CONTROL UNIT (dimensions)
« on: January 15, 2024, 09:52:12 »
I need help.
I am building a heater control unit for one of my clients. Could someone tell me the "A" and "B" dimensions? This part is currently missing (not my picture). The control unit is complete. I just want to make sure everything is fine.
Thanks!

Sorry no one seems to have answered.  Is it just the slot size and position you need, do you not have the right hand piece you can measure?

A = 15 mm +-
B= 5 mm +-
It's difficult to measure in the car,

If you're intending to make these chrome parts, the set for RHD cars is no longer available, even used ones are scarce and usually in poor condition

There would definitely be a demand for RHD drive sets

I am also looking for these parts for a RHD car. So if someone has them, and would like to sell, please hit me up 🙏🏻

I assume it is the same as the one in the LHD cars. They are just mirrored. I might be able to make one. But am is not sure.

Hi,
as Yves mentioned a little bit difficult to measure I would say
A = 14.8 mm
B =  4.8 mm
