How does the 411 Heater operates?

The A/C system on my car looks like it was installed from new. Are you sure that you could not order an A/C system from Bristol Cars?

Thomas I am very interested in your air conditioner. The factory as I understand discouraged clients from ordering air but if you insisted they provided an under dash unit below the radio.

Could you post a picture please

Thomas thats a very neat job ,certainly the best under dash I have seen. The beauty of what kevin and I have done is that you get the air coming out of the dash vents rather than the underdash set up.

Thank you for the post

Peter,
It was supplied by Thomas Willig with permission from the author David Billington.

The document is stored 'in the cloud' with Microsoft Onedrive, which is why you were prompted to install the Microsoft OneDrive product, however there should have been an option (possibly not very obvious) to download the file without installing the OneDrive product. It may also depend on what type of device you are accessing it with.

Hi Peter,

What kind of heater/ ac combination did you and Kevin use?

WE BOTH FITTED THE AMERICAN UNIT "VINTAGE AIR". Kevin had his fitted professionally I did mine myself. It is fitted under the bonet where the original heater and blower was fitted. It is a major job the biggest problem being getting enough air from their unit into the existing 411 ducting. I wont really be able to say how sucessful I have been till we get warm weather next summer.
