Blake; If you don't mind telling, what did the entire kit set you back? I can't tell from the website. Also, besides the obvious (that it's new and likely more dependable) how does this compare with the Behr unit? I ask because I have a Behr unit that several people have wanted to buy from me. I can't install it until I get the TD engine into my diesel westy, so it's not doing me any good right now. I'm wondering if I should keep it or let it go, and just get a Vintage air when the time comes. Jim On May 29, 2007, at 10:53 PM, Blake Heinlein wrote: > Jim, > > That was me.
