Defroster Cable Length


Dan Hiebert

Recommended Posts

A couple months ago I scored a Chrysler Model 36 under dash heater unit.  I'm currently rebuilding it to replace the aftermarket under dash unit (which has never worked) that has been in the car since we've owned it.  The aftermarket unit has the defroster vent on the driver's side of the unit, while on the Model 36 it is on the passenger side.  The defroster vent cable on our car is 26 1/2" from the nut securing it to the dash, to the end of the spiral shroud.  Does anyone know if that will be long enough to reach over the Model 36 heater to the "new" defroster vent location?  The cable/shroud has to reach over the unit to the cable clamp on the vent in order to work properly.  The unit is still disassembled, waiting for a key part to reassemble it, elsewise I'd have tested the fit already.  Just trying to get a jump on a part search if necessary.  Thanks!
