Dear fellow 80-series entusiast,
As my nickname gossip I’m from Sweden. The 80 series was never sold new here so they are a rare sight. I want to retrofit an a/c system to mine and I’ve read a lot of post about suggestions to take a a/c unit from a wrecked car and mount in my own. Unfortunately that is not an option since there aren’t any scraped cars here at all. However, euro4x4 parts seems to have some parts. Are there any experts here that knows if I need something more, very essential parts, that are not seen on the picture bellow? The ”gasket and seal” department is for a conversion to r134-gas and under ”miscellaneous” you’ll find the A/C button for the panel.
I realise it will be expensive and there are no piping available for example, but a good a/c mechanic would be able to make those pipes if I mount all the other stuff? One question is the cabin evaporator, are there like a ”housing” for that in a 1991 poverty pack or is that a part that I need to source? And how about the condense water, do I need to drain that or there are drainage orginal? And how about the electric’s? Is the A/c button just a on/off switch for the coupling on the compressor it would’nt be a problem?
Big thanks in advance if someone pick this up and help me!
