Hi there, Thank you for the donation, It appears that there are a number of special tools and jigs required to remove the A/C and as the text states that compressor must be removed, to do this you will have to drain the refrigerant from the system, i would contact the dealer or a larger A/C repaired as some times they have devised a method to over come the official line, this may be wort your while to investigate, i have added the removal text for your information.
