    I got my AC serviced and it blows very cold, but there's just not enough air through the tiny vents for really hot days. So I put this fan on there, and it pulls a lot of air through the system. This thing blows cold air very hard, more air than a modern car. Doesn't look that great, but it's easy to take on and off. Ya can't beat it for $25.

    It has an adjustable wheel, you can turn it down if you don't like the noise or turn it up if the car is hot. It blows about as hard as a hair dryer.

    I haven't tried it yet on a super hot day over 90 degrees. Will report back when I do.

    Are those a/c vents on the top of the dash also? Not enough air flow through those either?

    Behind the fan you put in, is there a smaller a/c vent? Cool idea and great to hear it helps out.

    Those top vents are for the heater. The Countach has seperate vents for heater and AC. Heat only comes from up top, AC only comes from the tiny vents just behind the gear shifter.

    The heater works great in the Countach, never had an issue with it. But the AC is notoriously crappy, everyone hates it. Blows ice cold but the vents are too small so there's not enough air.

    Good choice. A bathing towel will also help.
