Product Description

This is a major upgrade to a stock BMW 2002.  Although BMW 2002 is in many respects designed better then a modern car the big weakness was the stock heater box which sits up in cowl area of car.  heater fan motors almost always fail due to water infiltration.   All AC's in 2002's were dealer installed and less then adequate.  This new custom designed combination heater coil and AC coil all in one unit fits nicely in the space and turns HVAC of a 2002 into a modern equivalent.    We have installed in various years  of 2002's and fits perfectly when you remove heater box.   Requires some creativity in making adjusting face plate or we can provide custom face plate and sides for unit to match look you desire.

HERE IS PICTURE PORTFOLIO LINK TO A SAMPLE AC/HEAT ONLY CONVERSION PROJECT.  WE HAVE INSTALLED OVER 100 OF THSE UNITS AND INCREASLINGLY CLIENTS SHIP US THEIR CARS FOR JUST THIS AC/HEAT INSTALL.  THIS IS AN OLDER INSALL WITH ROTARY KNOBS VS. OEM LIKE SLID CONTROLS BUT SHOULD GIVE YOU GOOD UNDERSTANDIN F THE EASE OF INSTALL FOR ANY EXPERIENCE MECHANIC

- side intake can have filter added for cabin air filter performance

Includes

-          Evaporator / heat exchange fan unit

-          Electronic controls, wiring harness  (have optional unit with cable connections if interested that can be connected to orig AC fan                  speed and defrost vs. heat vent control)

Customer can supply stock AC face plate or we can provide a face unit or custom face unit for extra charge.   We have custom designed these to look like

stock Behr, Fridgking or Clarty units

 

Note:  will need to use stereo unit with remove face or ipod control as will not be enough space for traditional 1 DIN stereo.. possible a small USB only stereo.  Small compromise to fix one design faux pau of original BMW 2002’s HVAC system. 

See our ads for Stereo (search for stereo for 2 low cost very nice units we sell)  Others are available from Alpine to Sony to whatever that are not more then 5 inches deep

**Please note side panels roughed in are provided with AC unit but finish out in leather, vinyl and custom fitting Fridgking, Clardy or Behr center face place extra charge and requires core.   We can also provide a custom front face plate you can install and trim to radio or no radio of your choice.    All face plate work minor extra charge based on your choice of materials and radio

Upgraded console panels are made with custom vinyl or leather with french stitch (double back stitch ) on edges in black or in your favorite color accent.  Often used white stitch, red and blue "M" colors or white with a color like white and orange

samples under custom console item in catalog

 

Note:  New addition to kit is availability of slide potentiometer controls for electronic air flow and electronic heater control actuators can be installed in original control area to right or left of steering wheel and use original face plate to look residential to original cable controls !  Base kit ships with rotating knob controls but can substitute in slide controls for these two controls for small charge.   The AC fan speed and AC temp will continue to be mechanical knob controls regardless.   See picture of recent install included here
