Air Conditioning... Exactly

[tripodal]

Air cooling... EXACTLY
I drive a 1986 Honda Civic Standard.
Let me entail to you what this means....
No A/C
No Radio
No Speakers
No Nothing


I have a spare motor and will soon be putting in a tilt steering column, moon roof, etc.

But before next summer... I do need to make an air conditioner.

So after trying to concieve many different ways to build one out of a Dehumidifier or small eneough House A/C unit... It suddenly hit me.

Peltiers are small easy to build for and can cool stuff down.

My question is how will will they cool the air?
How many will I need?
How effecient are they at 12V? ( I would like to run them at max effeciency vs. max power as to save my alternator.)


My inital concept is one of them being mounted in a line on the roof of the car, between the 2 seats with 2 fans blowing rear to front over heatsinks.
To cool the peltiers i was thining of useing the roof of my car as a heatsink. How do you all think this would work?

Also ther is the possibility of installing them in the doors as well.
All comments appreciated.
