munters Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 This should be a complete kit..

tzagi1 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) I have a very similar kit, well, it uses most of the same major components. the controls are different. Its installed on a 71 and works quite well. However, and with the presumption that the idea of paying for a kit is to allow you to install all consonants without having to run all over town looking for misc small components, at that it failed. The fit of the "suitcase" under the dash is horrible, this is a universal device, not engineered very well in my estimation , The instructions were completely useless. Just about everything required massaging to fit and, for example, there is a door that switches from vents to the defrost, its just behind the 4 outlets on top, it has a built in seal that got stuck to the housing preventing the door from working at all, had to tear off the gasket/ seal piece by piece and fish it out via those 4 vent holes. Overall, a terribly engineered product specially for the cost, but hey...you want working AC right?

Derek Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I run the Vintage Air Gen 2 Mini. I had all the other stuff already so I didn't need a kit just the evap/heater unit. It fits under the dash really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 It's pretty much hidden. There have been a few install posts on ClassicZcar including the one I did. I suggest you give this a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetsaz Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Just get the vintage air unit. You'll be better off sourcing similar parts from them in a kit with way more documentation and help. Look through the recent pages of my "musician's therapist" thread if you want to see some pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
