You'll all be sick as pigs to know I have lovely air con in my tourer, however I have a question about the front panel.
(I mean the bodywork that the fog lights fit in)
You see I have 2 long oblong holes as opposed to the normal 1, I'm thinking it's because of the air con. The lower one (oil cooler) has the normal grille, whereas the top one is just a hole. Should there be any kind of trim? I' haven't seen any others on the road while I've been looking - typical.
A/C front panel

Thanks guys that answers my question. Looks a bit untidy IMHO. One day I'll be clever enough to post pics........
BTW: in answer to the above question, I would source a second hand kit (read CAR) and fit it myself then have the man come and gas it for me. Be prepared to have the dash out. Bear in mind that when the AC is switched on, the idle picks up. I'm not sure how this happens, so you might need some 'non-ac' bits you might not have thought of. (ECU??)
