But have you figured out how much the aircon is going to cost me yet?

Nope, but budget arount 2k if there wasnt a previous sytem in there.

If you dont mind geting your hands dirty, you could probably buy the complete system from a wrecked similar model Hiace to yours, it will mean pulling your dashboard apart to install it all though.

But, at least that way - all the ducting, wiring and the associated bits and pieces fit properly and it will look like it was factory original.

Then you only need a tradesman to flush the system out, new filters fitted, the oil changed for fresh stuff and regassed.

The other option is an aftermarket roof mounted unit, even then- you still need the compressor, its mounting bracket and drive and tensioner pulleys.
This one would not involve stripping out the dashboard- and you can probably do most of the install yourself if you wanted to.

No idea what a system like this costs- but there are lots out there on the road so they must be reasonably good.
