Anyone who has retrofitted a '56 or '55 Senior Packard with factory A/C system run into this situation? The end of the R/H turn signal blinking light socket hits right on the lower part of the lower A/C duct. See pics. This will make it difficult to fit the rubber duct onto the vent. The only thing I can think of is to cut a notch in the rubber duct, although I would rather not do this if somebody knows of an alternative.


I have installed several 1955-1956 Packard factory air conditioning systems over the years. Never had this problem. Ever. Of course, dash top openings have to be in precise position. As in dead accurate.

Also... are you aware that there is a clearance indentation in the vent base?

Advice? Don't cut anything. Bad idea.
