Nice. So now you have front A/C and front/rear heat?
Well I completely deleted the rear heat/ac and in the winter I have no problem keeping the entire inside warm and now that its getting hot out the front A/C cools the entire inside. So I wouldnt be to worried about it. I took out my third row seating years ago so no one sits back there anyways. As far as people sitting in the second row, the center counsole has that vent in it for heat and ac.
Just remember, not every XK came with the rear hvac option. I actually think its just a luxury that borderlines "gimmicky".... Maybe in extremely hot or extremely cold climates it will help expedite the climate control for rear occupants; but how often are people in the 3rd row.. and when they are, the basic system will still get the job done (especially if you have remote start!)
Down here in the misersble heat soaked texas I use the rear ac quite a bit. I dont use the third roww much but what i do is point the vents forward and up so it pushes air up front for the kids. When I got in my xk yesterday the tempgauge read 108. Wasn't that hot outside, but just sitting in the sun ya know. It was about 96. I can't wait to get stationed father north.
And that is why I live north of the Mason Dixon!
Can someone please tell me to remove the REAR ac vents? I need to replace 2 of them. Thanks Steve.
Just checked my service manual and it didn't mention anything specific about them. Snap a few pics of the ones you bought... are there screw ports or does it look like they just snap in? I'm sure we can figure it out :D
