Default EK Air Conditioning / AC question

Right now i dont have AC in my car how much do you think it will cost for it to be added in.

Is it hard to put AC in yourself with all the components? How much would it run me to get it done at a shop compared to doing it myself (if possible) or if anyone else knows how to do it.

Im looking to not spend 1k on AC. Summer is coming up so i have a feeling im going to need AC . Ive never had to deal with AC so im clueless right now.

Partly because i have to get head liner , trunk liner , head unit , alarm system, etc so money is an issue.

Install the parts yourself and then have a shop charge it with coolant.

That seems to be the best way to go, but i have no exp doing AC stuff. Ive been quoted around 1k to have it done at a shop. Complete AC for a 98dx hatch would run how much?
