AC Box

Here is the finished installation

Jim is showing the small section that you can remove which will allow you tor remove the valve covers.

Here is the small removable panel with two brackets that hold it in place on the main evaporator box.

Here is the removable part off the box so you can remove the valve covers without hitting the evaporator box.
