Took apart the A/C box cleaned up a bit.. box has a whole, guess that’s how the mice got in.. going to see if I can fiberglass it and see how it works out. Ordered the reseal kit from Dixie restoration.. come to find out the plastic retainer that holds the rod door was in the kit.. go figure

Since the box is out now would be a good time to modify it for some extra clearance.
