71-74 Non-A/C Heater Control Panel

 I'm installing the heater box control cables back into my 74 Charger. The clips that hold the cables to the heater box levers have the clips that clamp on to the cable sheath installed. The sheath clips that hold the other end of the cables to the heater control panel are missing. I was wondering if someone has a pic of the cables clipped to the control panel plastic body so I can see if they're the same type as used at the heater box. R/T Specialties sells some but it says for A/C heater boxes. Mine has the kind shown on their site but it's a non-A/C heater box. I'm willing to buy the control panel if necessary to have a spare and to get the clips. If someone can take a pic looking up from the bottom of the controls panel, I can probably see the type of clip used. Thank you.

as far I recall yes, the clip that holds the cable shield is the same on both ends

If you can wait until I return to town (Jan 3, 2018) I can provide you pics of these clips of them already removed from the control panel.

Available for sale if you want original hardware. Nacho is spot on with his pics above.

:cheers:

Thank you for the pics Nacho. That's exactly what I needed. I'm going to check as I may have a couple somewhere. This is a case where I took the car apart years ago and things have gotten moved. I still think I have another box of small parts in in plastic ziplock bags somewhere. Once it's all together, I'll find them. By the way, I looked at my other 74 Charger with A/C and of course it's totally different with no cable clips at all. Thanks for the offer Vegas. Each of you have a great New Year.

BUT, it will get ONE clip, not for heater box actuators levers but for the heater valve wire lever.

some of these clips can get diff "design" ( you can note some small diff between the black control and white control ) maybe manufacturer and assembly stock on these but as far the clip the same onto housing, will work nicelly

Got it. Thanks. A couple of years yet before I get started on that car. Then, I'll put all the A/C stuff back in the engine compartment. Everything else is there and I have all the parts, just need the time.
