OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Cross-section photo shows the finned core of an OEM HD heater box for ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY. The fins on the available AFTERMARKET heater boxes are not as "pretty" or extensive, but they still do the job you need to provide extra heat on cold days!


 
Heat Exchanger (Heater Box), Heavy Duty AFTERMARKET, Right, 1300-1600cc Type 1 and 2, 043-255-108H are the highest quality heater boxes available currently. Finned on the inside, NOT "Racing Heater Boxes" which are just a tube with a skin on it. You'll get the most heat possible with these for those cold days. Beware that many shops sell "Light Weight" or "Racing" Heater Boxes, luring you in by their low price. They are low priced because they have NO fins on the inside, just a shell and a J-tube so they do not produce as much heat.

Photo shows the finned core of an OEM HD heater box for ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY. Lightweight heater boxes have no fins AT ALL around a round pipe. The fins on the available AFTERMARKET heater boxes are not as "pretty" and do not give as much additional surface area as OEM, but additional heat is gained by the fact that the heater box core is larger in cross section than the round tube of a non-finned unit. This slows the flow of hot exhaust, and increases the time to transfer the heat to the finned heat sink!

Tube ID is 1.215".

We recommend "Spiral Ducted" heater boxes for locations that don't get below 20F, and the "Heavy Duty" heater boxes for locations that get colder than that.
