Hey Mal,

Mate thats cheating!

What wrong with the 2 x 80 air conditioning you know 2 windows down doing 80 kmh

I hope you know a good auto electrician cause it looks like you will need one

Good work as allways, although the technology is not my cup of tea I am impressed with your motivation.
Will be good to see the final product if we can work out what it was originally!!!

Hey Greg,

The wiring is all done now, and no hands on needed from the auto electrician although some verbal advice was sought.
The good thing about the vintage air unit is that all the wiring is done, just plug it into each other and your left with 4 wires to run, compressor, power, earths and request from A/M harness.
I may have to sit down and make a list of different cars that parts were sourced from, that would be interesting.

whats the go with the demister vents, you say they are standard ??? i've never seen a car with them before...

Hey Sammy,

Yes the demister vents are standard FB/EK items. I just had to make the round section bigger to fit the flex hose.

Hi all,
Have just finished a trial fit up of all the dash with consol and air vents in place now with it all working.

Cheers
