What goes here to connect the lever to the heater valve? Where might I purchase such parts?

Also, I have never had stock heat installed. Do most people remove some heater tubes to adjust valves or just reach around stuff? Just trying to save myself some trial and error time in the future

I get that it's probably a stock photo, but that doesn't look like it has the normal lever connection.

Here's a pic of stock flapper boxes (not mine):

The relevant part is at the end of the lever in the bottom right of the picture. It connects to the heater cable end with a barrel nut. The other end of the heater cable is up in the center console near the gear shift. You need one cable and two barrel nuts. 914 Rubber has both.

Cable: https://914rubber.com/1970-74-heater-lever-control-cable
Barrel Nut: https://914rubber.com/barrel-nut-assembly-1

You can also buy these to cover up the cable where the ends exit the firewall: https://914rubber.com/heater-lever-control-cable-grommet-1

I think you can adjust the valves without removing any of the heater components. It's a minor PITA either way.
