Anyone come up with anything to make the 3rd row have real AC (not just cabin air)?

I am wondering if I could split off a portion of the 2nd row's AC and route it under the seats to the 3rd row. I have no idea where the exiting ducts run though or where I could tie into (other than the vents.)

Anyone done this or just have ideas?

Blows colder if you turn on 2nd row floor vents. I think someone once speculated that the 3rd row air inlet is near there?

I *just* discovered the 2nd row floor and center console vents control separately. :facepalm: Thx for the info!

Would be very interested in where the 3rd row intakes are, if anyone knows.

I have an idea - read the manual. The Third row has AC cooling, no heat.

@Zoidz no need to get snarky. Thank you for the pointer to the info.

I am trying to get 3rd row air cooling and heating.

Also, I have removed the seats and seatbelts in the 3rd row, so it seems "auto" climate setting will not work for me.

So, I am still looking for a creative solution.
