Has anyone fitted a Southern Rods Aircon system?

[Highnote1]

I was trying to get as narrow as possible to keep the glovebox and hide as much as possible. Went back and forth with this and the hurricane unit which is much less wide but taller…may need to beat down the trans tunnel

fornthat one. 
Lot of accessories from the company too  to make it work and they have been around a long time.

Is Hurrican another supplier?

Did you ever look at the Southern Rods models to see if one of them fitted?

Lots of people have used these too. You can search on the FAQ. 
 

Had heard some not so great reviews of the southern rods and their ac unit seemed too small to me and didn’t have defrost so did not consider.

Right you are 12hrs behind.  Was wondering why you were on line same time as me.

You and the world will be a lot further behind if Trump gets back in!

Isn't there anyone else younger in political life in the US?  lol...

Highnote - the large vents you used in your console, were they the 491792?

thanks mate.  They look good and I agree with your choice of black.

Highnote 1  "I would just add two vents, one in each of the old hvac holes for a total of 4".

Which vents do you think would fit in the holes?

I roughly measured the holes tonight and they are about 110mm wide x 30mm high.

The smallest rectangular vent I have found by Vintage Air is the 49356-VUL which measures 3.875”98.3mm x 1.562”39.6mm.  Have you found a smaller vent or do you intend to cut the dash larger?

I’ll have to dig around again but I found some that fit. If needed I may have make a small backer piece out of abs but it will be easy. I’ll send a link when I can. Try oldairproducts.com. I think that is where they were.
