Since your pumping water, why not add real heat too? I know in AZ its not as necessary as AC, but some winter mornings its nice to have.

Or... Does your underdash unit handle this too?

Please post some info and pix of the hotrod air install when you do it.

Yeah the unit i got from HOTROD air is the A/C and heat version....here are a few pics. Yep recovering dash with black leather so material is missing, will look good when done.

COOL thanks for the pics. Anyone HAVE a good underdash without vents? And will it fit the later cars?? I like that look and why have vents when they dont work anyways.
that unit takes care of it all....

thanks guys for looking! smile.gif

Looks great!

OT: Are you using a 901 tranny or a Suby with the cable shift?

Posted by: markb May 6 2009, 05:45 PM

You'll need to replace the sub-dash, and make sure you have the proper glove box and door.




BTW, we have them as used parts.

901 with cableshift. I love it. So much nicer than stock. (cableshift.com here in arizona)

cool so i need sub dash and the early no vent dashpad.

Might be nice to retain the fresh air function. IIRC, if you replace the sub dash, you also have to modify/replace the steering column head. Fun, huh? The Cap'n
