Do you guys have any idea of how smallcar realises the air blending, to
have both heated and cooled air at the stock dash vents?

I have been searching for a good and well-working idea for years (over a
decade) and seen only one or two solution that worked at all. No idea,
how well though.
One is here:

The other I can´t find anymore, I think it was a list member who
installed a vintage-car retrofit heater box in his brown vanagon with A
LOT of ducts.

I modified a stock WBX heater box with Audi A/C stepper motors to
control airflow, but the biggst problem is getting cold air (or an
evaporator) into the box, mixing/blending with air from the heater core...

I myself been handling no air for the parts 5 years in hot summers living in Mesa AZ. But now that we have a 2 year old son and twins coming in June, wife feels this would be a great addition for us to use my Vanagon in the summer picking up the kids from daycare, etc. Looks like the Dodge Grande Carivan A/C unit will fit behind/in the back side cabinet like it is installed in the carivan. To help reduce back area from getting hot, having the windows tinted.
