Default Late Air Con Install

Hi

Well i've just purchased a small turbo Cossie on a L-Plate (Very Rare) and basically the cars missing the Leather Seats (Got Cloth Ones 'SIGH') and Air Conditioning.

I was wondering if anyone knew if it be possible to get Air Conditioning installed from a Cossie Specialist.

Any Help Would Be Appriciated

Thanks

personally, i'd prefer cloth if its it good nick rather than the slidy sweaty leather, but the leather does look better.

There is a massive amount of work to do to install air con to a non aircon car even the ecu's are different IIRC dash would have to come out and most of the engine bay would need emptying if you are really set on it then selling the car and buying an air con one is the best option IMO.
I also have an L reg spec small turbo but mine is on an N plate due to having been on it's travels around the world

I was going to fit aircon to my old car and all the wiring was there under the bonnet and for the aircon/blower switch also I am pretty sure it was there at the fuse box. The rad had the fixings to take the condenser and the pulley was there etc. I managed to get hold of the lot from a guy that was removing it all from his monte and I swapped my blower unit from the engine bay with his. I didn't think there was a need to remove the dash (don't quote me!)
