Vintage Air Install Update #2

Oops -misunderstanding - The dryer removes moisture from the refrigerant. I'm talking about the moisture that will condense out of the air when it cools coming across the coil. You have to have a condensate drain on the system to drain that water to outside the car. Surely this has one to handle that and the only concern VA has is the possibility of moisutre also condensing on the outside of the cold housing.

My bad.

 

I can't find it referenced in the online documentation, but a drain kit came with the evaporator. I'll find out for sure, but this sounds like what you're talking about.

I can't tell from the pics but do you think there is still room for a stereo to be mounted in the stock location?

Yes the stereo will fit. I actually modified the lower bracket that was on the stock heater box, so there is exactly the same amount of room for a stereo as there was before.

There is a drain tube that you can see on a picture in an earlier post of this thread. The kit does come with a hose that will allow water to drain outside the car.
