No problem Steven.  As I said in pmail, mine appears to be a dealer installed system and doesn't match the Bentley for '85 back, or '86 forward.  Since I haven't worked on any Vanagon A/C's other than mine, it's hard to tell where mine is "standard" and where it's totally different.  Glad you got yours out OK.

I did spend a year in Augusta back in 2000 (and Orlando the year before) and I'll take the dry heat anytime.  The big difference, though, is that we have over 100 days a year over 100F, and 20 over 110F (like 118-122F).  But, it usually drops below 100F at night.  Usually.

 Thanks for your help, Kieth.� At some point VW changed
 the way they hung
 the AC from what's described in Bentley.� All bolts and
 screws on mine came
 out from below the rear bed board.� It's a pretty easy
 one man job that way
 and it's not heavy so it can be held with one arm while the
 last bolts are
 removed.� I did put a sawhorse under it, though, to
 keep it from possibly
 crashing down.
 
 I'm in Georgia and, yes, there have been times over the
 years when the heat
 without AC was almost unbearable.� Those are the times
 when I dream of
 driving down the road with a electric generator in the
 luggage rack running
 a portable AC in the cab.
 
 I think I'll leave the space open.� After 29 years of
 driving my Westfalia,
 I'd like to be able to see something in the rear view mirror
 besides
 tailgaters. Trimming it out will be a challenge, though,
 especially since i
 want to make everything reversible.� Of course, with
 all that stuff I had
 to pull out, this is a good time to add extra
 lighting.� And I can put some
 better speakers back there, too.� Oh well, it's too
 damn hot and humid to
 go camping, anyway.
