When do you guys run your ducts for your ac system? Before or after your wiring. The reason I ask is that I am sending my car to be wired this weekend and I just finished the install on my gen II compac from vintage air. It is finished all the way up to the wiring and ducting. My dad and I are debating if we should run the ducts now or wait until it get's back. Which is easier? What have you guys done?

Run your wiring first, then run the ducts last. Be sure to plan how you want to route them now, then make sure your wiring guy knows to leave room for you. Be sure to pull the duct hose tight, avoid kinking, and use large wire ties on both ends to keep the hose from pulling off the barbs. The best routing is the shortest length.
