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!
G'day ekute
Heres a couple of pics of both
FB/EK on left FE/FC on right

Cheers Gary

Both my cars have original fc vents and they look like eds repros nothing like the ones in the pic ?
I don't know if these are original equipment
I took the smaller ones out of an FC with a Warmaride heater
The larger ones were in an EK Panelvan with a heater
they look to be FB/EK or something else.
the FE FC vents look like this… metal are original.
fibreglass are reproduction.

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.
Hi Ekute;
I am after a set for my ek ute project if you want to sell a set.

Where can I get a set for my FE Sedan?
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
