Had a busy weekend in quarantine...

Ever have foam bits blow out of your vents? Heat not working like it used to? I think a lot of 986 owners will like this one 😁

As always, great video. As far as I could find, the 1st one clearly showing this repair. Thanks for posting.

I was considering the repair where you access the rear flap from the heater core access (under the wipers) and by cutting off the "top cap" to pull the flap right out.

This video does look like a much easier solution.

Thank you! Yes it wasn’t bad at all. Hour tops.

Great vid! I've seen a write-up about it but I've been putting off doing it because seemed too complicated. I also love the technique to apply the tape. I'll definitely try it in the near future.

Thanks for taking the time to create the video for all of us!
