Volks, I'm trying to renew the heating in my 1970 beetle. I've got the main flaps moving freely underneath, installed all new heater control cables -- including the one that controls the rear-seat footwell outlet flaps -- and cleaned and de-rusted the heater tubes under the back seat. But neither of my rear-seat footwell heater tubes has a control flap on its inside: there is a pivot in each tube, apparently for mounting the flap, but nothing to open or close the flow of air. Neither of my available "parts donor" cars seem to have them, either. The control wires just hang in mid-air after exiting their guide tubes.
Can these little control flaps be found on the aftermarket? I've checked my MAM and WCM catalogs and don't find any likely suspects...none that I recognize by description, anyhow. I can't even picture how they install or work (since they're absent -- duh). Or does anybody have information that would help me fabricate a pair?
