I've seen this movie a million times but i don't want to recreate this setup. I was wondering if any of you guys knew how to actually make this swivel. Instead of the ac unit flipping down but have it flip around so that the gauges were on the backside and then you have the whole piece flip around.

swivel? That would be hard to do, considering there would be barely any room for wiring, if the gauge was on the back of the ac unit.

you'd have to make your own im sure, ive never heard of such a thing.. And you would have to run separate wire to even get the swivel to swivel! unless you wanna just do it manually, just spin it around with your hand haha.

Im sure it could be done.. but i really dont think it would be worth the time/effort.

Yes this is a re-post.
Also discussed a lot.

The wires would have to be directly in the center so that they didn't show on either side.
I would probably use a magnet latch and swivel it with my hand. no big deal.
