Question

if the air con is an option at the factory then its fittable (sp?) at any point.
does anyone know if it can be fitted to a uk spec as an aftermarket?
anyone tried it?
anyone priced it?

help me please.

Peanuts,

Air con is fitted at the dealer on all old shape cars. My air con arrived about a week after my car, so had it fitted at first service.

The cost is around £1400 including VAT.
