The original air conditioning lines can be visually intrusive within the engine bay. This kit relocates the A/C hoses behind the engine, creating a cleaner, less cluttered appearance while retaining the vehicle's air conditioning system.

Featuring replacement barrier-type hoses, a manifold and welded custom fittings, the kit provides a practical solution for Porsche owners looking to improve their engine bay presentation during restoration, maintenance or modification.

What Does the A/C Line Reroute Kit Do?

The kit changes the routing of the air conditioning refrigerant lines, positioning them behind the engine rather than following their original, more visible route.

This helps create a tidier engine compartment without requiring the complete removal of the air conditioning system.

Why Upgrade the Original A/C Lines?

The factory air conditioning pipework can detract from the appearance of an otherwise carefully restored or modified Porsche engine bay.

The reroute kit offers several benefits:

• Relocates visible A/C lines behind the engine
• Creates a cleaner, less cluttered engine compartment
• Improves engine bay presentation
• Uses replacement barrier-type refrigerant hoses
• Incorporates welded custom fittings to help minimise potential leak points
• Retains the original air conditioning function when correctly installed
• Ideal for Porsche restoration and custom engine bay projects

When Should It Be Fitted?

The kit is particularly suitable when restoring or detailing the engine compartment, replacing ageing air conditioning hoses or carrying out engine-out maintenance.

It can also be installed as a standalone appearance upgrade where improved A/C hose routing is desired.

Kit Contents

• New barrier-type air conditioning hoses
• A/C manifold
• O-ring seals
• Stainless steel mounting hardware
• Custom welded fittings

Installation Notes

Professional installation by a qualified automotive air conditioning technician is recommended.

The refrigerant must be safely recovered before disconnecting the original lines. Following installation, all connections, including adapter fittings and Schrader valves, should be checked for leaks using an appropriate vacuum and pressure-testing procedure before the system is recharged.

Correct hose routing and clearance from hot or moving engine components must also be verified.

Porsche 964 & 993 Air Conditioning Line Reroute Kits and Engine Bay Upgrades

The Porsche 964 and 993 are renowned for their air-cooled engines, making the appearance and condition of the engine compartment particularly important to enthusiasts and restorers.

Original air conditioning hoses can create visual clutter around the engine, especially on vehicles undergoing detailed restoration or customisation.

The Rohler A/C Line Reroute Kit provides an effective way to relocate the air conditioning pipework behind the engine, improving the overall presentation while maintaining the functionality of the original A/C system.

Design911 supplies Porsche 964 and 993 air conditioning components, replacement hoses, refrigerant lines and specialist engine bay upgrades for classic Porsche maintenance and restoration.
