Engine driven roof top AC to replace Dash AC

[Ken H.]

Last weekend Hubert Rowell showed me the tint of that type he'd just put on
his GMC windshield. He did the upper 2/3, leaving the lower untouched. I
had trouble seeing the transition at first. He says it makes a BIG
difference in cockpit heat. He didn't mention the density spec., but I'd
guess it was 70.

If you know how to set the Vintage unit it does not block the hatch. Those that have no imagination can mount it half ass and complain and mislead.
Who would know more than us as we not only are an authorized dealer but been doing them for years on GMC coaches.
Quit passing out bad info.

I have one the Vintage Air units to install in our Avion to enhance the AC. I got it from Bill Michell about 2 years ago. Why don’t you put the installation instruction up in your “Instruction” area. If not, what do you have that you can send be before I start the installation.

I will see you at the GMCMI Convention.
