i'm going to put air con in my mini.

the good man steve from Bricks sold me one.

can anyone show me how the set up the air con.

did you make extra vents on your mini.

was thinking maybe a centre console pumping the aircon via that would be a good idea? thoughts?

was it a job to do your self? or what did you do. & what did you get a some one else to do.

i'm looking but i don't know where to start or what to do.

thanks for your help. :)

can anyone post pics of there engine bays.

There's a few different types or aircon setups.
Early and late types, and in-dash and under-dash (total of 4).

Post some photos of the parts you have bought and I can provide info for what needs to be modified and what doesn't.
:D
