Description
The Kick Panel Air Vent Baffle – RH Black is an OE-style interior HVAC component designed for 1973–1987 Chevy GMC C/K pickup trucks and 1988–1991 R/V series trucks and SUVs, including Blazer, Jimmy, and Suburban models. This passenger-side baffle installs behind the kick panel and helps direct airflow from the fresh air or A/C system into the cabin for proper ventilation.
Manufactured from high-quality injection-molded ABS plastic, this baffle replicates the original factory design with the correct shape, size, mounting holes, grain, and texture. The black finish matches OE appearance and can be painted to match your interior for custom or restoration applications.
This component plays a critical role in the HVAC system by properly channeling airflow through the kick panel vent system. Over time, original baffles can become brittle, cracked, or missing, leading to poor airflow direction and reduced interior comfort. Replacing the baffle restores proper airflow management and helps maintain consistent cabin ventilation.
Engineered for accurate fitment, this OE-style reproduction installs in the factory location on the right-hand (passenger) side and integrates with the existing vent system components.
This part replaces GM part numbers 348737 and 14036918, making it ideal for restoration projects or HVAC system repairs on classic Squarebody trucks and SUVs.
