Possible? What needs to be done?

You used to be able to buy the genuine kit from LR

The whole dash needs to come out and you replace the whole heater assembly. Not too bad a job on a 300 Tdi.

The 200tdi kits used to come pre-gassed not sure if the 300 ones do.

I have a Aircon kit brand new in the box but it is LHD only.

How much do you reckon Marc?

Cheers

They used to be lots of money. I will have to look it up when I am work tomorrow.

I don't even think the after market people bother making the kits anymore.

If someone wants a 300 tdi with aircon they will buy it like it, It is not financially viable to convert them anymore.

Second hand bits would be good though.

All i need is a parts list, then i could get them bit by bit from eBay.

Marc Hi,

if the kit is for the 200Tdi Disco I may be interested for it.

Take care Pantelis

if they are the the same, I have just removed an AC Pump, pipes and front cooling rad from a V8 RR. Dunno if they are the same part no's, but no doubt some one will know.....

I have a 200TDI with the retrofit Kit Installed that I'm breaking if your interested -(you would have to take out but as the system is pre-gassed with self sealing connectors it should be not too difficult.

Lyndon Hi,

If it is a Left Hand Drive vehicle then I may be interested.

Take care Pantelis
