Heater Backdate - How to Plug Hole

I'm going to begin my heater backdate soon and have one question, and I'm sure there will be more as I go however: What did you guys use to plug the hole that the current heater blower tube comes through to the HE on the drivers side? Thanks,

Brad '86 Carrera

Duct tape and a hamster.

Kidding, sorry PETA fans. On my SC, I cut and bent one from a sheet of aluminum, painted it black, and used a hose clamp. Someone said a beercan fits well too.

No heater backdate, but removed the heater blower assembly to run headers and to clear the 993 twin-plug distributor so the issue remains. Piece of aluminum with a small dimple and epoxy to hold it to the rest of the sheet metal.

Stock Carrera pressure-fed tensioners with the smaller 930 orifice:
