cabin cold air ball broken.
« on: December 09, 2015, 09:27:18 PM »
G'day there,
Is there a replacement ball available or is there a comparable one from an other model that will fit the broken ball in the dashboard adjustable air nozzle.
The passenger one is broken and falls in a long way so maybe I can glue it back together but that will not last I don't think.
Has anyone a solution please.
Thanx in advance for the help,
Greetings,
Eddie.

If you have smart in oz then call them

If not then give kate (lilsmartie on here) a message and she will order and ship it for you.

I tried to take one of the side ones out to look at fitting a boost gauge and I just couldn't get it out so god knows how to replace them?!?

Anyone got a workshop manual they can review and give an idea of what is involved?
