[Healeys] BN7 HEAT! Ouch

[Mark LaPierre]

These are all great ideas.   It maybe a bit late now but if done right your 
carpet should be folded over the edges of the  vertical panel to form a 
pretty tight seal and then the weather strip from a hardware store can be 
installed on the top of the vert. panel .  It doesn't help that the frigin 
speedo cable is squished in there too but thats the way Donald wanted it I 
guess.   The  bottom of the tranny tunnel lip needs a thin(height) but wide 
rubber gasket to make a good seal.

The hardware store stuff is cheap enough so just buy some different sizes 
and then trial and error.  You can
use the left over on your leaky Jag.   )

Some new sheet metal screws in new holes may pull things together a little 
tighter.
