Please excuse my for repeating this question again.
I did use the search function, but it is confusing.
Can someone please summarize?
I want to retrofit a airco into a 93 300gd.

what I know:
-the facia has the blue color already around the hole where the dial should be
-I would like it to look factory on the inside
-brandnew compressors are on ebay for +/-600€

What I would like to know:
-what other parts do I need?
-where can I source these parts?
-wishfull thinking , but is there a kit or a simple solution?
-what price tag am I looking at?

I looked into this once and the parts were £3000 odd from MB. I reakoned it would take 3 days to fit it.

Hi, I have a whole aircon kit, it's fitted on a 1980, not sure if it will all fit but it's there and available.

Re: airco retrofit on 463

The interior in quite different on the 460/1/3 so I do not think that the a/c would fit. a/c has a lot of bits to make it work which are specific to model and engine
