Default Difficulty of installing AC Unit on my EK Hatch?

Just wondering how difficult it would be to install an AC unit on a 1998 Honda Civic Hatch?

Pretty difficult. You have to wire it in, you have to take apart the dash to put in the evaporator, etc.

It's actually pretty easy, you only have to take out the glove box, not the dash. No wiring, everything is plug and play, even the A/C button, i did it in mines. pm me if you have any questions.

i just use the recharge kit from kragen, you might want to take it to a place that does AC to check for leaks.
