Default new heatercore in, ac out... before i start...

so i just finished installing a new heater core and what a PITA!!!!! i disconnected the ac bottle right next to the heater core and the tubing running to the ac pully... i unbolted the entire thing and took it out for more room, and since its now winter and my ac has no condenser i will prob leave it off.
my question is whether i need to plug the tubing coming from the ac pully? or can i leave it open?

edit: also, anyone know where i can get a set of locks (doors, trunk and glovebox) for semi cheap?
