The drivers side heater box is made from a compressed fibre, unfortunately it had a large hole in it which Will telss me tends to happen when owners don't secure the bonnet stay properly and as a result it punctures the casing when the engine is closed. there are ABS plastic replacements available but I set out with some great ideas from Steve on repairing it.
I used fibreglass matting and resin on the underside of the hole to reinforce and then created paper mache to in fill. this was all then covered by 3M rubberised undercoat to cover up the patch. I also reconditioned the passenger side metal cased one as well. Whilst things were apart, we removed the valves and inserted new sealing washers.
