Boxhead,
The car is progessing well. Once everything is removed from the donor car it goes together quickly.

The ventilation unit modification is to remove the fan and housing, heater core and HIM unit with the sensor and dump the rest. The new interior air con kits come with a new evaporator and new ducting to attach to the dash. The fan housing is modified to fit to the new evaporator.

With the air con fitted the ECU needs to mounted either on top of the chassis behind the ABS(with holes cut for the ecu plugs) or in the front of footwell below the heater fan(this is the way I did it). Either way the loom needs to be unplugged from the motor if you are unlucky and the motor needs to be removed.

DRB have altered their chassis from chassis no30 to enable the complete ventillation unit to be fitted.

Also what number chassis is Chris's car. DRB made the floor flat and lowered the tunnel from about no16.
I modified my tunnel in places which made it easier to fit the console.
