I need a new lower dash panel. Every single one, I come across in the junkyard
, has a vent right below the steering wheel. Mine does not.

It's a ball cooler for those hot summer drives. My wife actually made a comment about the one in her Caravan saying it was so nice to have a cool breeze down there with the A/C on! LOL!

Excellent thread title.

My 95 also does not have this accessory - are you looking at 94-96's?

Hahahaha - it's literally called a "lap cooler". See number 17.

Ah yes, the nut cooler, i love it. Best thing in the world after a long day at the shop.

Both '92s I've had came with em. My 95 didnt, which i though was odd, but just chalked it up to it being a RHD. Maybe they just got rid of it somewhere along the way. I know the newer interior design didn't come with em.

Might have something to do with trim level. Mine is a Laredo, which had the nut cooler plus tweeters for the radio in it on the 86 model
