Its all good in saying that but what happen's if your
park a set of light's around town and there's no breeze to speak of

Wheres the " I drove the car into a wall, didn't do any damage, but now my air con dosn't work option"

If it worked id vote yes. Not like the 3au is a gass guzzla, plus borgs dosn't work.

Aircon only makes my car slower so it only gets used if it's very, very hot.
