Interesting stuff, I love the idea of A/C in our cars.

It'll be worth looking at. Maybe I should upgrade my alternator, just in case, before I have the engine put back together.

As far as it being loud, looks like it's on max-speed and my engine will drown out the sound anyway (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Now, if they could put the blower where the fresh air box is under the frunk-vent.....then it could work as a good defogger too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I agree, and i think that if that is compact enough to fit in a center console then it should fit in the fresh air box space with little issue, just need the box to fit it in, and also you are then right we’re the deflectors and hoses are. Seems it would have been just a s easy to engineer that than what they did here.
