My '87 Adventurewagen has an aftermarket AC mounted inside the dash.  The
radio was relocated for the sake of two air vents in the center of the dash,
the two outer vents were re-ducted to provide conditioned air only, two blower
switches (six speeds!), and most of the glovebox cut away for an insulated
box.  Made by Bauer(?) in California, I believe.  Impressive except it's not
working.

   A better location, yet, would be to install it like a regular car,
in the dash. You would have hoses everywhere, but the ducting system, and
the blowers would not be redundent. You would also have to put an
evaperator in the rear heater core, for the rear.
