Just as cold as any new commodore,have been driving around with it on low,to cold if left on high.

Is the install difficult im thinking to do this after panel and paint while dash is out
would this make the job easier
does the unit use a new switch or original one
sorry for all the questions im very keen on doing this to my van

Looks a good setup wondering if my efi throttle body would clear the alternator as it doesn't clear an original compressor.

Are you running a efi 5L? If so im told you use a VK V8 aircond bracket and it fits. I haven't tried it as yet.... But do have one. This post has got me more keen to try it now! As im about to rip out a redo my interior anyway!

Also what was the cost of the setup?

Also where did you buy it. I see there is a few sellers in aus. Which kit did you buy? Or do they do a custom kit for Q-B?

Yes Jason there's an efi engine in it , Ido have a full set up off a vk compressor and alt on drivers side also have the power steer pump but not sure yet . Also can cut off and reweld throttle body on more of an angle but not real keen on that , but it has been done by someone on here( sorry can't recall who). I think the kit is everything included but the gas , so that's where the cost is , I was looking at just the unit and control there is a few different sizes and the new ones are all electronic servos ,which I've seen for between $800 & $1000 use my ac brackets and own hoses condenser and r/drier.
