    not really, the door is easy to get off, take the foot covering off the bottom, its like 2 push clips, then theres 3 or 4 small bolts that hold the hinge for the glove box door. it comes right off

    take a look at this thread, it shows how to get the glove box off. http://www.grandprixforums.net/showt...door+actuators


    this pic from that thread, the box in the top right corner of the pic is where the door should be.

    that would be a blend door actuator. link dont work, but by the words in it. thats what the link i posted is the how to for, all they do is control hot and cold air or the mix of it.

    when bad, one side will blow hot and the other cold or vise verse.

    hes a off the wall thought.....is the plastic under the inside door skin still there on the door? if its gone cold air maybe coming up to the window and making it fog up. this would only apply in the winter tho.

    its possible the plastic is off or ripped.. In fact I can assure you its probably deteriated due to replacing window motors and such.. I only have this problem in the winter.. Can I buy new plastic or something better?

    Someone told me that he felt a draft under the door. so i guess the plastic if off.

    do you really think it could do that?


    after thinking about this.. isn't the window in the door behind the plastic. Wouldn't it be the seal at the top of the door trim?

    like i said off the wall thought.

    ive felt drafts in my own cars over the years when that plastic was loose or missing.

    if its still there and loose you'll want to glue it back on somehow, rubber cement should work well id think.

    yea, but when I open the window a crack they clear right up..

    Can I just buy new plastic? or something better.

    I'm going to go with the blend door... aren't there multiple blend doors? is the door that controls the recircuilator flap different then the door that controls temperature? Then are there different doors for where the air comes out?
    Maybe there are multiple actuators?

    dont buy blend door actuators, they are like 80 bucks each and you dont need them. theres 2 if you read that how to i posted regarding them.


    the plastic, take the door skin off see whats up with it.
