Re: Vintage Air System Problem

my experience with vintage air tech support:::
i need different hose ends and hard pipe for my hybrid system
i called to order the new parts and said i would send the old ones back
rob (i believe he's the owner) shipped them that day at no charge
with just the promise i would send him the old parts.

vintage air is aok in my book


i had to do something similar to what oldman did to get heat to the other side of my console.
i didn't modify the ac unit but added duct thru the console for the floor heat
i made a fiberglass fascia to lower the front of the dash 4'' just to hide the ac unit

Re: Vintage Air System Problem

Not as complex, but here were my solutions. Did not like the stock plastic under dash louvers to removed the front and flipped them towards the top. Added my own polished aluminum/black metallic grille. Installed the side ones in the kick panel with 09 Mustang louvers. Defront vents were not an issue.
