Thanks man but, that is a radio removal guide, I need an Airconditioning removal guide.
would u consider selling teh AC unit tho?
Why would you remove the best part of the car???
I will provide you with a few links however do not listen to them when they say just vent the gas out of sight. It is illegal for two reasons 1. It damages the environment! 2. It is toxic!

A bit of an idea on how to pull the dash apart:

thanks guys, will look into it.
Yeah i never use it, pretty much, so y let it way me down?? + cleans up the engine bay a lot :thumbsup:
hmm how much does A/C weight?
looking at the pics in that 1st link zdster posted, im suprised to see no ones tried re-routing the cooler that warm air is pushed through to get cooled(top right of pic below), and installed it into the engines intake tract for an ultra cool air intake. Would be interesting to see what happens. That thing must get pretty damn cold to cool a car so quick on the hot summer days here.

Yeah it gets cold when the air going through it is a little fan. When you have a 1600cc air pump pushing though it, it'll take a far more power hungry refrigeration system than the stock one to cool anything.
Now take into account the fact that a good refrigeration system might be say 55% efficient. You're an engineering student, I don't think I need to say anymore.
Wise words brother;) , im still yet to learn anything on heat transfer, but thats makes a hell of a lot of sense:thumbsup:
just get the gas taken out at any workshop - then get a few sockets and spanners ranging from size 8 thru to size 17 and thats pretty much all you need. A couple of hours later and you are ac free.
