Fit it dean.. when it's 30 deg outside.. opening windows and sunroofs just lets the heat in!! And xm are hot enough like a green house as it is..
I can supply you an R 12 system to go in. The r12 system in the 24v was a working one... and worked well too last time..
so we could sort something that way. Theres two aux belts.. one drives the water pump as its a big external unit that sits between the v banks and also the air con compressor.. and the other drives the altinator that sits under the front bank..

Always happy to tinker Will, although i have been given a little challenge to see me though the next couple of weeks.
1 for A/C then Paul, this isnt just a ploy to maximise sales though is it?

2 for A/C. I'm the same as Dean, window open in the summer, however, there is the odd day when the air con would be a welcome addition, especially on long motorway trips.

Stop suggesting extras and let Dean get on with the little challenge.
It is a job with considerable pressure.
