Hi
I did a search, but could not find ... If this has been discussed here plz point me to it ... My uncle has a 90 Td5 from 2003, very tidy!, all standard. In very good conditon, never did offroad, with 90000 km. He wants to keep it, can't afford a new one. He recently moved to an area 150 km south of Lisbon, that is usually very hot in the summer ... temperatures reach 45º centigrades .... He is thinking of fitting AC on his Defender .... and asked me for help, so I'm asking you guys... My question is: Where can I buy a kit (new) ? Stores online ? How much can it cost ? Besides the kit, what else do I need to change in the car ? Front grille, etc ? Has anyone did that ? fotos anywhere ? Any help is very much apreciated!

Just went to check ... got the part nº for the kit and serched online ... The price is obscene! almost 2000€ !! Does anybody know another aftermarket kit ? And fitting ? Is it too hard ? Does the AC needs to be conected to the ECU ? Is it true that the TD5 AC it only produces cold Regards Joao '10 Land Rover Defender 110 CC '08 BMW F800GS '64 SIIA Forward Control '69 SIIA 109 ZA CKD _____________________________________________ You have the right to remain silent.
