My bus is cut.
If you need measurements, they are online.
A BN4 duct is cut from the "floor" where the gastank sits, a hair wider than the width of the duct, about a quarter inch from the edge of the wheelwell and its height is in the online installation manual which is on the Vintagebus website. |

The hole size depends on the year heater you're putting in.

| If it is a 12 volt BN4 going in a 66 bus then the information I gave earlier should be sufficient. |

I may be on crack but that pic appears to show the control cable emerging down low and to the right of the duct? If so, it will not work on a later BN4 which needs its bowden cable to emerge high and to the upper left of the duct. |

All the literature I have has it entereing low, do you have a something that says otherwise?
The 6 Volt and 12volt models are set up identically as far as switches and connections are concerned. There is a holder for the cable mounted at the regulating switch on all models, even bay windoww heaters.
Those pics sshow, as far as I can tell from the mounting holes a later style heater ( Non-mesh fan cover)
