if u have cruise control u could take it out, or tha hot idle start assist motor,for the s/c all i did was just cut the line and stood back in case there was still stuff in there but there wasnt, but in ur case i wouldnt do it because that stuff could kill u.i took out the a/c and my bay looks pretty good, im aiming for removing the rats nest, then it will look really good

On the AC I just crack the line and let it leak down. dont breath any of it.

what is a "front demister"?

Venting refrigerant is illegal and you could be fined upto $100,000 if you're caught... I wouldnt be suggesting it in forums, but it is doable... just make sure you're alone and no-one can see you.

Just cut the piping and run!

It makes a mess and throws oil everywhere,


Just crack a line on the compressor until you hear a little escaping and put a rag around it, Back off and give it an hour to leak down.


You can also take it to a shop and have them vacume it.
