Hey guys. Just want to find out about the aircon.
When I bought my car the aircon was removed (as with all of the other SX's that I looked at). How many of you guys still have your A/C's??
Is it a useless A/C "like an asthmatic blowing through a straw" (Clarkson's words - not mine) or is it only to gain a little bit of power or are they unreliable, etc.
I'm really considering re-installing mine. Any ideas/comments...

They are not that cold from my experiences, they work off the std management as well and i got my car with a dicktator so had to re wire it.

the FSM says that the temp at the airvent outlet should be around 0-2 degrees celcius. so yes - they should work very well.
plus the sx interior fan blows hard (my best!) so it shouldnt be like an asthmatic blowing through a straw!!!
i removed my ca18 aircon equipment and have it all lying in my garage. i nearly had a buyer but the sale fell through, so if anyone wants one - please PM me!
