Yeah I have a couple questions for you, your PM box was full. I have half the parts I need so far and plan on getting the rest in the next day or two. Did you have to take out your headliner to route the wires to the interior temp sensor? Also when you installed the two digital wiring harnesses, did you tape them up with your main wiring harness or did you let the wires stay loose? Yeah installing this is one thing, figuring it out is completely different.
to route the wires to the interior temp sensor i basically pulled off the passenger side a pillar and ran the wires from the right side of the dash, up through that and into the headliner, my car has the sunroof so i kinda pulled the liner down near the sunroof and was able to reach the wires from there, if you don't have a sunroof you may have to pull most of the headliner, its easier to get the wires if you use a clothes hanger or some kind of fishtape. as far as the harnesses, i kinda taped it into my stock harness, i connected all the neccessary wires to the stock ones, then basically wrapped the bundle in eletric tape and a few zip ties, its not as clean as stock but its all completely hidden. whta i woudl reccomend, is work on the passenger side behind the glovebox, almost all the needed wires ar available there. this way you don't have excess wires in the way on the drivers side. make sure you havce everything that i listed, because missing any of those pieces will throw off the whole install.
good luck with the conversion, it so much fun saying that you've done a $5000 air conditioning conversion and that your one of very few to do it.
