best results if you remove the heater core as well (not to big of a project) and clean the box on that side as well.
however, the heater will be effective again only after reforming the flaps.
i'm on the fence right now if to repeat that project on my 996. with the Boxster it was a no brainier as the evaporator was leaking, and the AC didn't work.
not sure if i want to go thru all that trouble just to fix the heater for the 2 weeks of cold weather we have each year.

Meir knows best!

Hey, how's it going with that 996? Miss the wind in you hair???
