About Klima

Klima Design Works is a US-based developer of specialty products for vintage Mercedes-Benz and other classic European vehicles. Since 2010, we’ve designed HVAC upgrades that improve the performance and reliability of original climate control systems.

Most of our products are built to order, with a focus on quality, dependability, and availability. And as more original parts are discontinued or no longer available, we’ve been expanding our line of direct replacement parts as well.

We’re proud to support small manufacturers. Most of our custom components are made in partnership with small local shops, and every upgrade is produced in small runs with close attention to detail.

We love to hear from other enthusiasts. Please be in touch with your questions, stories, and successes.
