Hi there,


The condenser will un bolt from the radiator support panel, you may have to remove the radiator to access it easily. You will need to replace the O ring seals & also the receiver dryer. The System will have to be Vacuumed down to test for leaks. Remember the refrigerant is very dangerous so get it discharged via a collection machine and don't just let it go into the atmosphere.
