I'd like to refresh the seals on my Astro Ventilation doors, behind seats on a 70 coupe.
Does anybody know if they're removeable without risk of damage to the deck?
Do the doors come out separately or with the entire unit?
AIM is a bit unclear, UPC 1 - F20
Yes, the whole assembly comes out with a few small screws.... it helps if you`re an acrobat or contortionist. Here`s a picture of mine, I`m replacing the vacuum canister with an electric solenoid.
You can get the gasket kit from the parts suppliers.
I restored these for my 1970 LT-1 coupe and posted it on my Facebook page (if you're into that).
Stan's Corvette Restoration - Go to July 18, 2021 for the detail on the Astro Ventilation doors.
As mentioned, it is a pretty easy job once everything is cleaned up.
Mike, I had forgotten that the convertibles were riveted in (guess it's been a while since I worked on one). Still, you can probably work around that and get a satisfactory job with a little patience.
Astro Ventilation seals serviceable?
