Yea lower dash only mate, theres a lesson in there as well, dont use samco tubing on the heater matrix outlet pipes, they are only pastic and easy to split when tightening. The standard ford pipe is softer, and use the ford very narrow jubilee clips, cos they dig into the pipe and seal well. Dont use a normal jubilee clip as u will crack the pipe. The previous owner of my saph had fitted samcos, overtightened to the extent one of the plastic pipes had split, and had to bypass the matrix, which is all you can do to keep your car running. I wanted a heater for winter, so i got new matrix out of an xr4i out of scrappie for bout 5 squids.
