vintage air underdash vents

[Slider]

I need two more of the all black eyeball vents that come with the heater kit from FF. But cannot find them for sale at vintage air thru summitt or elsewhere. Can anyone recommend spot to buy these directly? Thx

I have VA's catalogue in pdf format. PM me your e-mail address and I'll send it to you. It has quite a few of the vents you describe.

Item #49054-VUL looks very simular

Just a quick update. Just spoke with Vintage Air, and they let me know that they do not have any 2" underdash vents. They told me that Factory Five buys some parts from them, some from other places, and assembles the Heater Kit, so unfortunately, Vintage Air cannot provide the vents. They have similar vents, but only accept 2.5" hose, where the kit from FF comes with 2" hose. I can get an adaptor, but still hoping to have some consistency between the vents, and am crossing my fingers that FF can supply them. I"ll update as I find out.

Further update. When I talked to FF, they indicated that the do in fact purchase the entire kit from VintageAir, but as mentioned, VintageAir denied this... Long story was that I couldn't get a straight answer, nor find the Underdash Vent Ball Louvers like what came with the kit from FF. I did however find a company called Nostalgic Air Parts, that was as helpful as any company I've found during my build. They were able to provide me the vents (not exact, but similar enough that no one will notice the difference). I spent about 10 minutes on the phone with them and they actually assembled every part to make sure it would work as I needed, while I was on the phone. Seem like very good people, and the only ones who seemed willing to take a few minutes to try and help me solve the problem of finding a vent that would accomodate a 2" duct hose. (through an adapter which I'm sure every other vendor has as well, but no others bothered to mention it even when I asked if this was a possiblity)

The part # for 2" underdash ball vents is 49344-VUL (for my Mk 4 kit picked up in September 2010). It is shown on page 51 of Vintage Air's online catalog. The order taker may have been confused by the part # above it in the catalog, which shows 2.5" hose compatibility. I successfully ordered two of these 2" part #'s about a year and a half ago.

Thanks so much! These are infact exactly what I needed... I did order the other ones as I was striking out trying to find these. Hopefully this post will help the next person in the same boat! Thanks again Mike.
