Need some help here guys. Removed my dashboard and uncovered a top bodge that a previous owner has done.
Basically it looks like they've chopped the bulkhead to allow them to change the heater matrix without removing the dash. Annoyingly the heater matrix that was fitted wasn't even right for the car anyway, it was far too small and didn't fit in the heater box!
What I need to know is whether the rubber part you can see in the pictures is in the correct place (on the engine side of the bulkhead), or whether it's supposed to actually be on the inside?
A mobile welder is coming out to be tomorrow to fix this, it would be really handy if anyone has any pictures of how it is supposed to look.
