Title: Demister Vents Again! Post by: ekute on June 22, 2014, 07:41:24 PM Can anybody explain the differences between FC/FE vents and FB/EK ones?
I have two sets one of which I have already installed in my FE (they aren't coming out because the screen is in) but I think one set was supposed to be the later ones. The set I put in my FE don't fit very well and the opening on the vent is smaller than the opening on the dash. I can't remember whether I compared both sets of vents!

I took the smaller ones out of an FC with a Warmaride heater The larger ones were in an EK Panelvan with a heater Title: Re: Demister Vents Again! Post by: Ed on June 23, 2014, 03:47:48 PM they look to be FB/EK or something else.
the FE FC vents look like this… metal are original. fibreglass are reproduction.

Post by: ekute on June 23, 2014, 10:42:05 PM Ok thanks guys, mine are both the same as the fb/ek ones Gary posted.
I bought one set when I still had the EK ute and the others came with my FE but weren't installed. Title: Re: Demister Vents Again! Post by: FireKraka on June 24, 2014, 03:11:09 PM Hi Ekute;

Title: Re: Demister Vents Again! Post by: Harv on March 18, 2019, 07:18:06 AM FE/FC ones are "squat", similar to the fibreglass ones that Ed repros. The FB/EK ones are much thinner in the bit that touches the dash.
You can use Ed's FE/FC repros in an FB/EK. They need a little bit of trimming, but otherwise work. I have a set in my EK wagon (with thanks Ed). Cheers, Harv |
