The driver's side under dash vent was missing (not factory installed) on my UK car and I'm pretty sure it is not on imports either

(possibly only early 89 cars). The vent installs below the steering wheel on the lower trim and when not present normally has a

plastic cover in its place.

 

The part itself is NLA from Nissan (part #68905-51E02) and mine came from a breaker in the States which a fellow Z32 owner

sent over to me - thank you.

 

The install just involves cutting the ducting where the raised section is with a sharp knife and fixing a small piece of foam on the

back of the panel to provide a seal when the panel is back in place. The vent is adjustable to point at the feet or alternatively at

the crotch which is handy on a hot day!

 

 

 

 

You might find one layer is enough as there is not much of a gap between the trim and the duct.

I did think that when i had the idea to double up the foam but i offered up and it seems to of compressed nicely without any force or stress whatsoever :cool3:.

If somebody was to loan me one, I'll 3d scan it and 3d print some!

Yeah but it will melt if you're using PLA, PET and of that stuff
