This air-conditioner kit has numerous concerns which I feel obliged to share. It comes with instructions that are not clear, and have been marked through and pencil writing which is hard to read. If you look at the pictures of the included hoses you will see that the condenser hoses have to be routed through the radiator core support and create such a bind you can not expect any longevity for the condenser or the hoses. I gave up and ordered an install kit from a competitor and it came with solid line through the core support. The plastic face on the evaporator was so thin the vent broke loose and had to be superglued back in place. I had to buy knobs from another source because these were so flimsy they would not turn the fan on and off. No sure where they source this but I do not recommend it at all. NPD has been great at solving what few problems I have had, but this one didn't seem to have any real concerns. As far as AC is concerned, I would be very careful and shop around.
