Some of these buses were fitted with an extra roof AC back in the early 90s:
SBS470C SBS471A SBS472Y SBS473U SBS500A SBS518A SBS538S SBS540J SBS541G SBS543B SBS546T SBS551C SBS556P SBS560B SBS561Z SBS563T Anymore?
Why were they installed as 'extras'?

These "extras" were only installed on some buses with Fuji AC. Even the interior of the AC unit looks different and got a giant cover mounted against the ceiling. The AC filter is relocated after this giant unit. I noticed this type of modified AC is more quiet. I suspect its Denso AC.
SBS 538S got a new cover at the top.
341S as well
I remembered when i rode one of them on Sv 242 while i was Primary 1. The a/c wasn't strong and i got a headache soon after.

Your post can make people pengsan....first time hear people get headache due to weak a/c, weak a/c causing people to pengsan still possible.

Ya, they had done some modification. Just like SBS 341S had undergone 3 times of modification to the A/C.
