G'day

I posted this in my new CFL but I am putting here as well...

The air con in the new van looks like it is based on an under dash unit. It is mounted on an RHS frame.
The controls are push button mounted on the unit just behind the vents.
It may not look flash but it works VERY well.

Here is a photo looking up into the roof:


Here is a photo showing the condenser with thermo fan mounted behind the bullbar:


The oil cooler for the auto transmission can also bee seen nearest to the photo.

It is a standard aftermarket underdash unit.  The big modification is a 90 degree bend made so that the front panel faces down, see second photo. It all works very well!
