Need pics of Defined V-Mount AC Bracket Setup/Install

So I'm installing a brand new defined auto v-mount into a friends car and can't figure out how in the hell the AC bracket is supposed to mount the exchanger. All of the pics from the threads on here disappeared a long time ago and Defined has proven to be about as helpful as an elephant turd.

Come on guys, help me out before I do the hulk smash thing and bend them all myself! If you have any pics of a defined v- mount installed with their AC brackets, please share...I'd greatly appreciate it.

The condenser is different between the MANA and Nippondenso systems so that could be part of the problem. You may want to post up some pics.

Unfortunately a lot of guys doing big IC's just go the easy route and ditch the AC. Not an option in Houston .

...or Louisiana. With all the adapter fittings available these days, there's little excuse to not fab-up your own A/C plumbing to accommodate cooling package upgrades.

Hey Dale

My personal FD doesn't have AC or PS so there are entire months in Houston where it simply can't be driven. This friend of mine purchased this defined V kit long long after the AC discrepancy was hashed out online, so I had assumed the AC type had been considered. I just hate he paid the extra for it only for me to end up doing it all myself anyways... Not really that big of a deal just annoying I can't find a single visual reference... Not to mention they forgot to include the isolator mounts.

Accountability in the supplier realm sounding this platform is just abysmal.
