I’ve searched all the threads and found a lot of mention about changing out the plastic eyeball vents on the heater box.
However, I could not find any pictures or mention of where they could be purchased in aluminum. I would like to find a direct replacement of the same size and hole pattern if anyone has this information, it would be much appreciated.
Yesterday I made a flight for a couple of hours in some pretty challenging condition, where it was quite cold and prone to icing. I had to alternate between using the carburetor heat and my heater. This worked pretty well, except for the fact that the heater vent kept closing, spinning around, due to the melting of the detent adjustments.
