The actual heater tap is about $30 I think. Mine went ages ago and had to replace it.

Mine went the other day, cost $34, 15mins to change.

Its normally sitting on the drivers side of the motor. From memory, top hoses (from motor and firewall) went to the top inlet on each side. they also had a bit of foam around them.

Yeh mate thanks, i had a proper look the other day, yeh should be easy.
would that be what is makin my car overheat in traffic or what??, i know ppl have said to me, what about your fan blah blah blah, but thats working.

overheating in traffic shouldn't be the heater tap I think, possible a blocked radiator or a dead thermostat etc.. Head to any radiator joint and they'll probably be happy to have a look for free. If not find another place that will
