[Mk2] [Turbo] Fitting aircon?

[Buster]

Cars originally a U.K. N/A. But is now a rev 3 turbo conversion.

How hard or easy is it to fit aircon?

BTW, long story short, I'm not aware of anyone who's done it (yet) and opinion is split between it being complex and extremely complex. It's not going to even approach a simple bolt-on job

To get all of the wiring/plugs/sensors/ECU/distribution servo's & all the mechanical bits you would ideally need a complete JDM car of the same revision as yours to take the parts from. It will require the dashboard & frunk stripping completely, all under trays removed & possibly more (fuel tank? Can't recall from memory) to run the AC lines, front bumper removed which if you've never done it will be a trial in rusted forever-spinning bolts.

Mammoth task.

If you can't be bothered with all that, & just want 'aircon' - it's probably easier to just grab the OEM compressor, condenser & some or all of the AC lines & the evaporator box (assuming it mates to the UK blower fan & the rest of the system ok), install that, have the missing AC lines made up with custom AC hose, & rig it up to come on with a simple button, like how the aftermarket systems work. The only controls/sensors needed would be the AC pressure & evaporator temperature I think.
