When i bought the car the Heatercore was already Bypassed.
But i recently bought a new core and since my interior is stripped figured i would replace it.

Sent let me know if that helps.

i never got it?

Check your spam folder I sent it from my work email address.

Check your PM's sent ya something!

checked it and printed it out. thanks

aside from the Heater core itself, do i need a gasket or any **** like that?

picked up the core from Advanced a few days ago.

Looks like you needs all new seals, did the seals come on the new core?

I know that I am bringing a thread back from the dead. but is there any chance I could get a copy of that e-mail. I have to change mine before it gets cold up here. thanks.

I would like a copy too.
