HOW TO DO AN ADVANCED SEARCH.
Mon Jul 08, 2013 3:56 pm by Admin
For the benefit of 944Hybrids users there are two search functions available for you to use.
The purpose of this sticky is to explain the "Advanced Search" function because it is much more powerful and is the best choice when researching information.
When you log on to the site a list of options is shown in a line at the top of the page. One option is labelled "Search", use this option (NOT the search box lower down on the right).
After you click on the upper search option, a drop down box appears. At the bottom of this box is a radio button marked "Advanced …

A/C and Heater options
So i have been doing some digging and a little research. I have realized that alot of the interior components are old and need redone to a certain degree. I figured the A/c and Heater box was not any different from the rest of that. If we are going to go custom why not go all the way. Installing a new a/c and heater system in the engine bay and hooking it to the old box still is running a chance of the system not working.
I found a couple options I have been eying and didnt know if anyone else thought about this yet.
a/c or a/c and heater setups.

heater only

Some of these systems you can have electric switches instead of cable driven so you can mount your own panel and simplify the Porsche controller. I know brand new that thing cost close to 800.00 and used is about 200-500 depending on the seller and condition and there is no guarantee that it will work for long.
Just fishing for opinions really.

There is also Vintage Air. They have the same type of stuff.

Re: A/C and Heater options
Also, summitracing.com has their own brand of in-house heating systems. The Summit brand is a little cheaper than Vintage Air or any other heating systems I've found.
This is the same route I am planning to go with my build because the stock heater box weighs a ton, it has a bunch of redundant features and I've never had a heater that worked right in all the 944s I've owned. Here in Seattle we only need air conditioning for maybe two weeks every other year, and I pretty much only use defrost or floor heat in winter; I don't think I'll miss the factory heater box.
