There are a number of after-market AC systems available both for the
Hot-Street Rod crowd and then there is the small bus, van conversion market.
Bring money! The Small car set up is based on one of these solutions. What
their solution does offer is the ability to bring fresh air in and condition
it when needed with heat or cooling. Actually with the blend system you can
use some of both to also reduce humidity just like most modern cars. When
looking at these choices you do need to consider capacity. Some are only 1
ton, (12,000 btu.) which is not adequate for a Vanagon especially when bring
in outside air.

Subject: adding a new dash A/C unit?

I am wanting to add a NEW dash A/C to some Vanagons in the near future.
I know all about the big project that did it by removing the stock heater
box and eliminating all fresh/outside air flow capability but that does not
interest me in the least. I just want to ADD the A/C without subtracting
anything. I like fresh air most of the time and rarely want to run the A/C.
I have located a small unit that can be fit above the glovebox but I was
wondering if anyone has done something I can copy? I already dumped all my
old Behr systems.

I mean a NEW unit.

thanks,
Mark
