Default a/c compressor question

I think my a/c compressor needs to be reservice...Just wonderin how much would it usually cost and where can I get it done?. I"m in the bay area. I was also wonder would a p28 in a 2000 gsr chassis effect any of that. some of my lights in my climate control blew... does anyone have a diagram of how to take out the dash? thx

when the a/c compressor was gone on my civic it cost around $500 i think (not for sure). I got it done at metric motorsport in pinole . The owner is koo as hell, and will tell you exactly what you need done to your car. Also if it sounds as if you have a supercharger (w/o having one), then it probably is the a/c compressor or compressor clutch or both. P.S. - keep good protection on that GSR looks nice. My civic was stolen in alameda (fu*k theives).

well if your car makes a loud whining sound like it has a supercharger (w/o having one) even when the a/c is off.. then it probably is messed. But i think i needed more than just the compressor when i got mine fixed.. and i don't remember how much it was im just guessing when i say $500.
