Raymond,

I'd say there are three reasonably easy options (forgetting front a/c etc.)-

1/ Use a donor westy evaporator shelf/fan (blows from the rear)

2/ Remove the center duct from your existing unit and allow air to
blow from the rear (actually cools the front better than the westy
unit in my opinion)

3/ Install the center duct with quick releases (perhaps something like
the air cleaner over-center wire clamps, but think beefier) and remove
the center duct when raising the top (stores nicely on the dash).

Another factor in deciding will be whether you are doing a full
Westfalia-style roof or the quick-and-easy hole cut.

...or...move north, trash the a/c and put a cupboard up there...
