That is what I originally thought, but when I try that there seems to not
enough room between the heater and outer footwall.  I have tried to gently
squeeze and "coax" it into place but it seems not to want to go.  I have
double checked that I got the right box from the moss catalog.

Can I loosen off the dash on the passenger side to provide a little more
"nudging" room?  I wouldn't think I have to trim it, do I :-(  ?

Thanks
David Templeton
