Air con parts give away. 7 years 9 months ago #169771

Having more or less completed installing the A/C I have a few bits left over.

They include
Condenser rad
Drier and switch
Pipe work (some complete, some are the ends but it should be possible to get complete ones made up from these).

I am offering them for free but collection only from RH12 (or possibly RH10) and I need them gone ASAP.

I'm just curious when would you want to use an airco in a cabrio? I can't see the benefits but my mg is not my daily drive...

Air con is short for air conditioning, not air cooling.
Part of the process dries the air as it comes through the dash ventilation system so on a damp day when you turn on the A/C to clear the windscreen you are blasting dry air on to it.
As a convertible is inherently damper than a traditional tin top it is more likely to have condensation on the windscreen on a cold morning.

The system on the MGF also adds a second cooling fan and both fans can be switched on by turning on the air con, ok, the air you draw through the radiator is warmed by the air passing through the A/C condenser but you do get a way of turning them on in an emergency.

On a hot day in southern Europe it is great to turn it on and pump cold air at your feet or face.

It is a satisfying DIY project to complete.

Really muggy day today and periods of rain every 20 mins or so, but hot and sticky....soooo nice to just put the A/C on and leave the roof up as I would be putting the thing up and down all day....the chilled dry air is great when you need it...also my car de-ices in winter so much quicker with the A/C on!
I maybe wouldn't bother fitting it if my car did not have it, but since it was factory fitted, it was one other reason why I picked my TF over others when I bought it last year!

I can drop them off the next time I'm down to see my grand children, probably Tuesday or Wednesday evening.
