Hi,
I am restoring/modifying toyota starlet and now want to install air conditioner, after surveying market peoples shared two
solutions, can anyone guide me which one is better to go for

1) vitz AC and parts of denso company, since starlet does not have any part of the AC pre installed so every thing need to be installed from scratch and need some alteration(cost estimate=30 - 35k)

2) install under dashboard AC only some parts need to be installed, less alteration (cost =15-17K)

If some has experience of having under dashboard AC and other conventional ACs please share it will be useful for me.

Vitz one seems better to me.But install new multiflow condenser of koolmate brand as it has better cooling than kabli one.

thanks for your suggestion i will keep that in mind for condenser part , on a second thought i found very very few reviews about under dash AC on the internet but they were all positive reviews, have you had any experience of it regarding its performance or durability etc.
