It will give me a chance to neaten up the wiring too. Plus get some sound deadening stuff on the firewall to try to muffle the intake noise from the intercooler.

As I recall, initially it was thought that the heater core was leaking and I went to an A/C - Radiator shop, where they removed all the under dash fan unit assy, and ducting up to the center console.
They then removed a fin cored unit that sat up in behind the center console with two flange pipe connectors to it. Thought this was the heater core? At this stage this core was inspected and deemed to be serviceable and was reinstalled as it was a genuine unit. They then used an UV light and identified that the leak was A/C fluid and did a service on the A/C unit (maybe evap?), fitted new o-rings /seals and re-installed. Then they pressurized A/C unit and leak was still present and it was discovered that the o-rings at the firewall flange A/C joints were deformed solid and were not sealing.
This is as I recall the event and am very prepared to be put on the right track as it is fairly unfamiliar territory and consider correction/guidance to be a part of good learning.. Thanks mate

Right or wrong doesn't matter... just that instant in time as the brain processes the post should be priceless I reckon.
Maybe even a good theme for the next months photo comp "The look on a persons face when..."
Yeah I had a slight hint of rage flush through me when I first read it. Then I realised it was a/c evaporator that comes out easy. Hopefully tonight I'll get the lot out including the heater box.

Mark, while it's open install a Cabin Filter. Just did mine and amazed what a load of crap/dust/leaves were in there.
Quick vacuum and all good, here's the link and less than half the price of RYCO or REPCO
