Hi All,

I'm looking to install an air conditioning (A/C) system in my '84
Automatic Westfalia.  It came from the factory without one.  I am
thinking about purchasing a new aftermarket system.  My other option is
to remove one from a part van, refurbish it and install it.  I plan on
doing all the installation myself.

I want to get the lists opinion on the following:
- Recommendations on equipment & installation.
- Things to watch out for.
- Refrigeration fluid recommendation.
- Aftermarket A/C providers.
- Types of compressors recommendations.
- Anyone selling/parting out their A/C system.

I live in Sacramento, CA and during the summer see a lot of days in the
100s.

I have read all the messages at Vanagonair on Yahoo Groups and obsorbed
all the information that was there.

Well, obviously it's not a simple answer.  I'm just trying to collect
more info before I start purchasing equipment.

Thanks again,
Blake Heinlein
