Double and triple check your measurements before using the drill. Use the proper size hole cutter and drill a pilot hole. Paint the exposed metal edges of the holes to prevent rust. I also agree that the storage locker is the best location for the heater. I installed both the inlet and outlet in the kick panel. Although the inlet is not absolutely necessary, I located both grills above the stock rectangular rear heater outlet and the installation looks great. +-----+ +-----+ | | | | | out | | in | +-----+ +-----+ +--------------+ | | | | +--------------+ -Mark McCulley
