Gday guys, anybody put rear air in a GXL ? my kids are always complaining about the lack of air in the back in the heat, I actually found a smashed 120 Grande in Darwin and spoke to the wrecker about getting the roof vents and ductwork till we realised it ran to the rear ! I was going to run ducting up the front pillars ( surprising amount of space in the front pillar ) from the front vent duct then accross and meet up with the Grande roof ducting, BUT no such luck, apparently the VX/Grande have a blower in the boot hence the ductwork running back wards. It started to get a bit exxy and also complex needing the blower and controls on the console etc etc and then have to work out how to get the cool air to the rear also.
Soooo my latest idea and the idea I will run with I think is to replicate a Ford Terror tory that has vents in the back of the centre console, there is room to run ducting to the front under the console, I have been looking at vents and have found a company caled Vintage Air, a US company who make AC for hot rods etc, they sell a thin flush vent and twin 2 inch flexy air pipe that after a few measurements I think will fit JUST.
This idea will be better than the existing system, NONE !
Any thoughts on all this ?
Has anybody else been down this route ?
