Default Non A/C Heater Box Seals

Hi guys. I'm in search of seals for a non A/C box that attaches to the firewall that holds the blower motor. Does anyone know of a company that makes these seals? I've been searching and have not had any luck. Do I just caulk in the box and the fan? Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
AJ

i'd just caulk it. i made my own AC delete box and used silicone to seal it.

Thanks! That's what I'll probably end up doing.

just be aware the firewall is not a flat surface. The top sealed with just a little bead but the bottom under the blower motor took a big bead.

Caulking is a good way to seal parts of it. If you wanted to make a seal, you could also use some foam rubber type sealing material that is available in a roll from a hardware store or some auto parts stores.
