I second RJ's suggestion to power up the existing evaporator in the dashboard with aftermarket condensor and compressor.

The front end was just fine in stock configuration.

A source of cold right at the windshield can't be matched by air being blown from back in the coach.

Designing the unit to also be able to run while camping is the sweet deal.

Off the top of my head late at night... can't remember the dashboard AC BTU... it is a significant number...

Happy coaching!

That's a good suggestion.  Is the evaporator in the dash behind the heater core?  I have a MCI 102c3.  I took the front panel off to expose the heater core but I didn't see a ac evaporator.  Perhaps I am missing something.

I will take RJ's suggestion and call Red Dot.  Do you know the BTU of the OTR driver ac?  I suppose Red Dot will want to know that so they can size the correct compressor and condenser.
