Quick A/C Delete question
 

I am thinking of removing my A/C since I never use it, but I DO use my windshield defroster in the winter times (and when it is humid/rainy sometimes). I assume removing the A/C will mean the defroster will just blow hot/cold air and not have any real defrost capability? Has anyone removed thier A/C and wished they hadn't because of inability to defrost the windshield? Thanks!

The defroster is related to the heater core. If you loose the A/C, nothing but the A/C will be affected.

Yes, what TM88GT said.

The only thing I never liked as I have deleted my A/C is that if it is humid or warm and it starts pouring rain, and the car starts fogging up inside. When I put on the defroster (warm/hot air) it gets hot and stuffy inside (but can't roll down windows cause it's pouring outside http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/frown.gif).

I'd like it if I could get cool air to defrost the windows and keep it cool inside while it rains outside.

Like the previous 2 posts said. I never had a problem and neither will you. Just make sure you won't miss the cool air in the summer http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/biggrin.gif.
