I've only fiberglassed up the rectangular box to cover the end. I did this initially on a box of the same dimensions as the heater end but I ended up undersized.

I ground the inside of the box so that it would fit the heater, but it got thin walled and fragile so I covered the heater end in a number of layers of cling wrap refitted the box and wrapped more glass around the outside to gain more thickness and strength.

Some sanding and reglassing and I now have a very durable, perhaps not so pretty rectangular box.

I plan to create the f/glass connection tubes by wrapping the right sized tube with glass to achieve the needed OD for the heater ducting. Will cut, glue and shut this f/glass tubing to achieve the direction I need of the outlets later.

Heater is in soley for the sparky to wire up. I will make it work later, probably after rego. as the engineer doesn't need it either. I have created the holes in the dash so if I get free time this is one of those jobs I can progress later.

If you want the email contact of this heater bloke let me know.

Cheers
