I just bought a jeep and noticed that the plastic box down inside the air vent on the hood has half of it cut out. It is causing alot of water to come inside the jeep and all over the electronics behind the dash. 2 part question:

1. Can I just patch that up or even rip out the whole heater box if I am not planning on rigging up the heat and air?

2. Is that a part that anyone has been able to replace at some point in their jeep?

I think I am planning on putting a Heater Craft Acu-Heat system in it and my main goal is to stop water from coming into the jeep.

Are you submerging it?


You can patch it.

No it is just a problem when it rains or when I wash it. Does it hurt anything if I was to just rip out the whole heater box and just seal off the air vent?

Not at all, at first I thought you were talking about the air box
