My mechanic, who also has an '84 Westy wanted my non-functioning A/C. He 
removed it, reinstalled his (non A/C) cabinet and gave me $300. We LOVE 
the extra storage space and it looks stock because it is. It may cut 
resale value but it didn't work anyway and I wanted storage more than I 
wanted A/C. 

Cheers,
Doug
