Re: Firewall Insulation Pad
You have to have a lot of stuff out. Do you have a/c or not?
WO/AC is less work I still try to find a none /ac pad.

Re: Firewall Insulation Pad
To put it in correctly you have to have pretty much everything out from under the dash. I just tried putting one from LMC in my 83 with a/c and could not get it to fit right at all, I'll make you a good deal on it!! I ended up getting one from somewhere else and it worked good, I will post tomorrow where it came from, I can't think of it right now

Re: Firewall Insulation Pad
Well that's kinda what I thought just glancing at it, lots of labor .. thanks, I think I'll look into alternatives.
What are your impressions of the foil?
