I had taken both plastic rear a/c side panels off an '86 once and left them off, only to find the next morning that the whole evaporator overhead panel had come crashing down, cracking the center duct that goes out and up to front of the van, and cracked the evap plastic housing... Believe it or not - those 2 rear side panels are the only thing holding the evap. assembly and housing to the cieling.... brace it up there w/ a piece of wood.. chris
