300tdi Defender Air Con Units

[Sivvy130]

My apologies if this thread is very common and Ive added the 100th one regarding this topic but I can not find answers anywhere!

I currently am restoring a 130 Cab chassis with the 300tdi. I have a genuine air con kit that is rather rough looking and currently inoperative.
Yes, I could restore it but finding parts has become rather a difficulty and I'm trying to track down a 'reliable' and more modern alternative that won't break the bank.

Ive seen a few kits on the internet so far and would like to see what other members are running or kits they've come across.

If you can recommend me a kit with the whole air con package (interior unit, compressor, pipes, etc) that would be very appreciated and even a business to purchase from within AU would be even better!

Cheers!!!

Unfortunately, you can have 'reliable' and more modern OR you can have inexpensive. But sadly not both.

Yes from all the research I've been doing it's looking that way. I think I might have to stick with the natural AC. Windows down & vents open!
