Before I do this, I'd like to hear from others that have. I suspect there isn't many that have done this, but thought I'd ask anyway.

I stripped the A/C condenser and fan to free up space for my house batteries etc and used the copper line to run wires for my docking lights from the engine bay to the old condenser bay
kept the road heat ,keeps us nice and toasty on the cold days when we are traveling

I removed main heat/AC and Drivers AC, BUT, I left drivers heat as this is necessary to defrost the windshield. When I removed the main heater core in the front of the front baggage compartment, I simply plugged the lines. This allows water to continue to flow to drivers heater core for defrosting. I use the valve on the drivers left side near the floor to shut off water to the drivers core, when I do not want any heat up front. The drivers heater core also helps warm my feet when it is cold outside. Jusy my way, YMMV Hope this helps, Jack

I better clarify, I'm talking about the Driver's heat-a/c. The equipment under the dash.

Thanks for your input Jack.

Update: The coils and fan box were removed today. Pretty straight forward. If anyone wants to do this, It's not bad at all.
