Subject:      Front A/C Installation - Aftermarket
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Folks,

A couple list members & myself are interested in indentifing AC Companies that can provide a Front/Dash AC solution for our Circa 1985 - 1990 Westy & Syncro Vans.

Since moving to Arizona 1 mnth ago ... its apparent that the rear AC is enough to keep one alive .... but that's about it.

If anyone has a Front AC Install ..... please give us feedback on its performance and details.

If you know of companies that can provide a solution, please let us know.

Also, if you have specific questions you would like us to ask of companies we contact, please send them to me.

I will add to our current question list.

So far I have identified Arizona Mobile Air Inc.(Phoenix, AZ) & European Cooler Air, Inc. (Rockwall, TX ) as two potential sources.

I have been in email contact with European Cooler Air, Inc.

www.europeancoolerair.com

Here a quote I got from them.

"THE COST FOR THE 16,000 BTU EVAPORATOR ASSEMBLE WITH ALL PARTS TO HOOK IT UP TO THE OEM SYSTEM IS $650.00 THE TIME TO INSTALL THE SYSTEM IS 5 HOURS."

"YES, I CAN DO THE INSTALLATION, I WILL HAVE TO CHARGE YOU TAX, 6.75% FOR PARTS ONLY AND THE (FREON ABOUT $25.00)EXTRA. SO THE TOTAL COST WOULD BE. $650.00 PARTS $ 25.00 FREON $ 43.86 TAX $ 300.00 LABOR $1018.86 TOTAL Phone: 972-722-3791 jwest@europeancoolerair.com"

It's my intent to call them next week and speak about the install and parts in more detail.

Right now the specifics are fuzzy.

This morning I sent Arizona Mobile Air Inc an inquiry email.

When we are done with this inquiry I'll summarize the results and publish to the list.

Happy Trails,

Larry Chase 85 Westy "RoadHaus" 90 Westy Syncro ... Soon Mesa, AZ
