I'll tell you guys... My SII Land Rover had a Kodiak heater in it. This thing put out so much heat that we could roast marshmallows. Mount one of those babys in an Alpine and you would probably melt

Nobody is talking about sealing the un-sealable. We're talking about sealing it back to the way it left the factory. But nice pitch for your sale. Paul
