Hi, after one of these. Anyone got one?  LHD. Car has aircon too (if that helps). Then.....is it a bastard of a job to remove and instal? Cheers.

Tie the compressor up to roof of garage to save degassing, unbolt from brackets. Everything else is straight forward take note of spacers for compressor brackets. Spray the studs on flange gasket with lubricant a couple of days before starting.
