I Found Something

Post by Z09SS »

Probably something everyone else here knew about... But I'm an excited newb.

My wife was complaining that the AC wasn't making it to the back seat and I was wondering how much worse it must have been when the partition was still installed...

I also noticed there are no vents from the 9C1 center console to the back like there would be in something like the G8.

Considering what a throw-back the car is, I was assuming that it was the vents in and under the dash or nothing.

Until I was crawling around the floor looking for something I'd dropped and found vents in the floor under the front seat aimed aft.

They blow air when I've got it selected to blow on my feet.

Neat!

Let's say that the back seat was not built for the comfort of its passengers in the back seat of police cars :D . We couldn't let them freeze to death however we could crack open the windows for them. That or freeze their feet ;)

My rear vents have spray foam in them. Sounds odd but did call the upfitter and found out in other cop cars they had problems with computers and other equipment over heating and didn't know how the Caprice would do. So they nlocking them with foam lol
