Before going onto the rear seats, I thought I'd fit the heater tube muffler.

My original heater mufflers were missing from the car so I bit the bullet and bought some Porsche parts. Very $$$ but well built. Also shown are the end gaskets.

The Porsche heater muffler appears to be made for a 911/912 so it has to be cut down to size.

It's a stacked assembly.

The inner tube is perforated so the heated air circulates through the middle woven fibers to reduce the noise.

Final fit. The longitudinal is looking better every day. The hat clamps that I bought from Stoddard are too short so I'll have to install some strap bands. (1971 flat windshield VW super beetle convertible cousin sitting in the background)
