Well done.... What a mission!
Ozbox had a glove box (That he got from me), that had a section cut from the glovebox and another panel fitted. This was to fit an aftermarket A/C evaporator which used the factory outlets. It clipped onto the LHS vent intake and went through the heater box as per normal.
BO6 = Rarer then a Sandman
Compressor and alternator mounted, tripple pulley on need to source longer belts as standard ones are to short.
Have a spare double pulley if anyone is chasing one.

Looks a good setup wondering if my efi throttle body would clear the alternator as it doesn't clear an original compressor.
We put vintage air in our HQ and had to sacrifice the glove box,we also mounted the alt on the right using a VB V8 commodore bracket but we don't have power steering,the factory unit are for purists only..... Try changing the spark plugs on the left bank with factory air! Our HQ firewall just looks like a HQ without aircond,the only thing that gives it away is the compressor
Are you running a efi 5L? If so im told you use a VK V8 aircond bracket and it fits. I haven't tried it as yet.... But do have one. This post has got me more keen to try it now! As im about to rip out a redo my interior anyway!

Yes Jason there's an efi engine in it , Ido have a full set up off a vk compressor and alt on drivers side also have the power steer pump but not sure yet . Also can cut off and reweld throttle body on more of an angle but not real keen on that , but it has been done by someone on here( sorry can't recall who). I think the kit is everything included but the gas , so that's where the cost is , I was looking at just the unit and control there is a few different sizes and the new ones are all electronic servos ,which I've seen for between $800 & $1000 use my ac brackets and own hoses condenser and r/drier.
