It opens the connection from the blower box to a big fat steel tube that runs athwartships behind the dash and ends in rectangular openings at each door frame. There is a corresponding tube through each door that feeds the air into rectangular grilles in the B-pillars, then up and back to two small vents on each side at the curve of the roof. On the Westy the left-side hole is blocked off at the front of the driver's door frame because the Westy has no vents on that side. See how much of that setup you have... david
