It's a lot of effort to go to and for what exactly? To save 5-10kgs and reduce the value and comfort of your car?

I realise your post is a genuine question and its your car to do as you please with, but I'd second the poster above. If you ever do sell it then a lot of people will be put off by lack of aircon, I wouldn't consider one without it for example.

However, if you do go ahead then there have been some posts recently asking how to retrofit it. So keeping all the bits together and selling them to one of those people might firstly do them a great favour and also offset the cost of removal.

Yes i agree there is people on here wishing to retrofit aircon.
I have the empty box you will need when removing evaporator you should see no signs of removal apart from a redundant blue light biggrin
Expect to sell for about £700 if parts are in good nick.
Cheers

hello

Thanks for getting back to me and i understand what you all mean but im going to do it. I'll let you all know how i get on and will be selling all the parts.

the reason i cant see the point is when it a nice day i have the top off so it's not used and on the odd time that the top is on when driving her i have the windows down so i can hear that AMAZING NOISE god and what a noise she makes.

Also how hard is it to de - cat her and ive also heard that if you weld a 2" or 2 1/2" stainless steel pipe in the silencer she will be even loader is this true.

Thanks Michael.
