erm yep was relatively easy to fit

I bought all my bits 2nd hand, fitted them the other night etc

I think it is a bit trickier on the older cars, as I think more of the dash has to come out, on mine MY00 I only needed to remove the glove box, to swap the heater matrix out

I do have some fitting instructions somewhere, but tbh I only used them for the torque settings

Ill try and dig out the instructions and post em up later tonight

Re-gas cos me 45 quid cash from my next door neighbour, that was a full gas, compressor oil & dye

I think you can pay anywhere between 40 & 80 quid tho, so it will pay to shop around

Sounds like yours may just need re-gassing, they told me if I have a leak it will eventually stop blowing cold air, and that it should be re-done every 2 years

All well worth it, I wouldn't want to be without air conditioning now.
