Yeah that ones off www.airkewld.com hey? I need an air ride kit!!!!! Lol. Unfortunatley they are illegal in Qld and as this is my daily i dont want any trouble w those police guys. Doesnt stop me wishing tho🥲 I could slam it but then its been lowered enough now really and any lower the suspension handles like crap, i mean.... worse than usual😂 Nah i love this bug. Heres the steering wheel i got from the guys at Airkewld. I get zapped when i use the horn.bond wrote:not wrong - thankfully you got rid of those magenta seats lol.

Thanks. Sure 🙂 It was installed by Jack Juni from Gold Coast Vee Dub. My bug was the first one to get it installed there. Its had a few teething probs but all and all its brilliant. Doesn't zap the engine power much at all. Costs around 3k to get it done but dont quote me on that. Ill post some pics of the air con/engine set up when i get Bugs back. Gone to the panel beaters to fix the rear RHS guard as I tried to move a telegraph pole with it 2 weeks ago. Dammit. Was only minor damage (still was livid with myself tho!!) but have to have Bugs looking his best for the Nationals😎 Let me know if you have anymore questions bout Aircon (Jack should be paying me for this!!! 😂 😂)Euro_67 wrote:Nice beetle.
Can you tell us more about the aircon ?

Ah my mechanic said that is secret squirrel... The condensor is hidden somewhere he said but thats the blower unit under the dash. The Air con radiator is called a condenser so they are the same thing. Hes being evasive with any more info... 🙅GTMac wrote:Great looking daily driver and love the a/c. What is the unit under the dash from as it is small and compact and would be great for under my Fasty dash. Not knowing all the terms/names but the unit under the dash, is it the blower and condensor unit all in one? Obviously the compressor is in the engine bay, you must have a radiator somewhere getting cool air, so the under dash stuff is all thats left of the setup?
Thanks, Andrew
