Default Removing AC and Heater.. Alternate options available?

To make room for later mods I have decided I am going to fully remove my AC and heating system in my soon to be ED/AU 5LV8..

Due to the car being rarely driven this is a pretty easy choice for me but I am wondering if there are alternate heating/cooling options available for people who have done this mod.. A quick google really doesn't come up with much..

I am sure there are plenty of us out there that have had to make this sacrifice, but surely I'm not the first that have thought is there an alternative? And how much would you be willing to spend on a heat/cool module that works maybe not a good as the factory system but works better than having nothing?

Cheers,
Nik

there are heaps of aftermarket heater/aircon options, you can get tiny little heater units that would take up stuff all space underdash

Thanks for the linkis PCMAN.. I found similar kind of units but they either are only heat/demist or if incorporating cooling still require external compenents, compressors condensors, water pipe from engine etc..

Are they really the only options available? I was thinking surely in this day and age there would have to be something to heat and cool and be completely contained..

Cheers,
Nik
