Can anyone tell me where TVR sourced the heater in the 280i?
My heat switch (slider) is seized and has begun to drip on passenger's feet which is a tad concerning..

What year and model for a start? The heater has chnaged frequently but is more or less a TVR special but you may be able to get a replacement valve. Access is a swine as the dash has to come out!

The car is a 1984 Convertible 280i and the cable from the heat control connects to the water hose pretty easily accessible not far back in the passenger footwell.
