Heater Blower Motor to Plenum Rubber Duct Boot
Dear
Cadillac Enthusiasts,
At
last! Finally there is a way to connect your blower motor to the heating system
of your Cadillac! Will wonders never cease? I have never seen a 57 or 58
Cadillac that does not need this part! As many of you know this part has
been a problem for decades. There is absolutely no way to Mickey Mouse a fix for
this due to the strange shape of the rubber part, its unusual relationship to
the steel ducting, and the odd position of the steel ducts relative to one
another.
As
you may already know one of the mating steel parts is square and the other steel
part is rectangular. As if that were not enough of a problem the two mating
steel parts are also offset from one another on not just one, but two different
axis! Anyone who has ever tried to connect this heater duct with a homemade fix
has found it to be an exercise in futility. No amount of duct tape, or scraps of
rubber inner tube, will help you here!
This
reproduction is the result of many years of very tedious work! Most of you
probably have never seen what this part is supposed to look like. That is
because these things fell off of most cars 40 years ago. Over the years we found
a few cars that still had remnants of this part. We collected those precious
scraps over 25 years. Without the OEM prints the only thing we could do was to
guess at the dimensions. We used these various old scraps to recreate this
complex shape. Testing our assumptions required the making of quite a few very
expensive molds, from which we could make prototypes to test fit. My die makers
were getting very tired of the seemingly endless revisions! They were ready to
hang me from a tree when I finally approved the design!
Needless
to say this was a very tedious, time-consuming, and very expensive project. The
good news is that after 5 attempts we finally have high quality reproductions
that look identical to OEM, but fit far better. These will not fall off your car
like the OEM parts did! I am confident that you could never find a better part
at any price. These parts were made in very expensive steel dies. The same way
the factory parts were made. Now for a tiny fraction of the actual cost to
produce this part you can have a brand new one! Think of it, air flow to the
heater and defrosters! Nirvana for the minimal cost of $125!
Sincerely,
Michael Rizzuto

we can turn on the fax machine. If you do not call first your order will have a

If
you use e-mail a good way to avoid credit card number anxiety is to send the
first 8 digits of the number in one e-mail, then send a second e-mail with the
second 8 digits, expiration date, and V- code. (The V code is a 3-digit code
found on the back of the card right at the end of the printed credit card
number) I do this all the time and have never heard of a problem. However if you
are not comfortable with this idea we can do it on the phone. Please make sure
to include the address where the bill for the credit card is sent, and the name
of the actual cardholder, personal or corporate.
