Default Vent-Duct Formation?



I've never removed the dash before; so I'm wondering about the structure of the duct-work, because I have an idea for an install that depends on it's shape.

What I'm wondering is, behind the center vents (above HVAC), are those ducts a unit; as in example "A", or are they independent ducts, as in picture "B"?
Even if their routes aren't exactly how I drew it, I just need to know if they're connected or not; basically.

In other words, if it's like example "A"; then that means I can block-off one side, and air will still come out the other; which is what I'm hoping for.
If it's like "B" however, then I can't do what I want, because it'll clog/choke that one vent-shaft.

Basically, I wanna block-off one side; in order to replace that vent w/ a control unit (like an EDFC).
I wanna mount it in that same space where one of the center vents was originally located.

Nice! I wasn't sure if it was something that is useful having access to full time. I thought they were a set it and forget it type of thing.

It's possible; I haven't installed it yet.
I use my glove box and center console though; so I don't want to occupy that space.
Also, it looks really cool up there
