Everyone knows the limitation of the Vanagon air conditioners. If you have A/C in your Vanagon, the vents are likely behind you, or over your head. There is (was?) an aftermarket solution called Dash Air for Vanagon that attempted to solve the issue. As you can see in the photo the kit moves your stereo over and places vents in the dashboard. Unfortunately, the kit is “out of stock” and we have no information if it even still exists. If you can afford it, Dash Air is an interesting solution. Click through to see the entire kit and get the price.

The picture above represents the entire kit and everything you get for the whopping price of $1295. Is it worth it for cold air coming from your dash board?

This is the full installation picture. As you can see, the stereo is moved over in favor of a dash vent. Perhaps the ash tray vent is a better option? Check out Dash Air for Vanagon if you’re interested.
