Bye Bye A/C

What all do I have to do to take this out?
If I got a picture of the engine bay could someone photoshop it a highlight what I have to take off?

Thanks

the condensor in front of the radiator, the compressor and its mount on the side of the engine, and the lines that connect them all. you can get under the dash to remove that unit but its a pain in the *** and i said to hell with it.

tape off the 2 threaded ends coming through the firewall. the mount for the compressor is cast iron and weighs a ton itself.
