Works better than expected

We brought one of these from Tuck who was very knowledgeable and helpful. After installing it into our Landrover we were pleasantly surprised the performance cooling is very good if you’re thinking of getting one of these we recommend it.

Better than expected

Kev was spot on—didn’t have to swap out the alternator, which was a bloody bonus! Quality is actually better than we expected, and we chucked it in our Falcon show car. Looks like it came from the factory that way. Cooling is top-notch too, no dramas there. Kevin was a legend, super helpful, and really knows his stuff—hard to find service like that these days. Would definitely recommend this air con!
