Add me to "The List"

Also looking for someone in So Cal with rear air so I can figure out what it will take to get rear air in mine.
The dealer and Dodge customer service have been no help...
No surprise there!

thanks

The rear vents hardly work anyway. The main system was never upgraded for the MC and rear vents. Lots more cubic volume, more outlets, same system = poor performance all around, let alone those vents. They even put a baffle in the system to force air to the back and it just makes the fronts not perform very well either.

Removing the baffle was an option for my friend but they had to tear the whole dash apart to do it. Nor for me. I don't want rattles everywhere.
I have rear air, but only on the floor between the two front seats.

It did increase the flow through the front vents a good deal as expected since air wasn't being "forced" to the rear (now, similar to a QC or regular cab truck) because the system in the MC was now essentially the same. However, the flow through the back ducts was almost useless (more useless than previous). On high, the rears could hardly move a tissue held right in front of it... I can't accept having a MC and passengers in the rear with hardly no air flow at all...

So, I had the dealer put the screens back it in via a new box, or that part of the system. The screen cutout is permanent for the most part... The system is back to "normal" (original) now. Until there is a better solution (need to flow larger volume of air) then mine is staying this way.

Luckily after 2 times into the dash at the dealer for this I don't have any noises (yet)...

If you don't care too much about the rear air in the MC then go for it. The MC air system is just a modified system from their smaller cab volumes and it shows.

Oh good, Now I don't feel so bad. Actually, I ordered and just received a dash matt for the top of the dash. When I was testing the temp of the air I noticed on a 93 degree day while sitting in the sun, the top of the dash measured a whopping 145 degrees. I figured that this is not only contributing to the rise in temp when I am at idle, but can't be good in the long term for durability. It has helped a lot, not with air volume but with temp. so I may just leave well enough alone for now. Some times patience is good. Not what i am known for though.
