70 E body AC vacuum grommet Which Way? - 07/19/09 08:53 PM
Somehow I forgot to take a picture of this part before it came off the car. Is it supposed to mount on the engine compartment side of the firewall, or the passenger compartment side of the firewall? Also, which is the correct of 3 possible clock positions for this grommet?
While I'm at it, Where's the best place to get the temp control cable for the water valve? I'd like to have the one that goes through this grommet, but if I have to I could use the one that comes out by the brake booster.
The reproduction cables I've seen use a stiff wire, but I've never had the chance to check out an original cable off the car. (mine was missing) Do originals also use a stiff wire, or are they more flexible for easier routing? Do I need to look for NOS, used, or repro? If repro, who makes these cables?
Many thanks to any who help! This cable situation is one of those little things that's puzzled me since I got the car 11 years ago.
