Then remove everything you see in the pic. This one is for an Integra.


This one is of the hoses and the next one is of the other components involved.



Now looking at this pic, a teg has part of the AC system built in to the radiator so all you would remove is the cooling fan. However in your civic you will have another "radiator" looking piece on the drivers side with a fan. This is for the AC. Have fun, wear gloves. Freon is COLD!!! !!! Happy Stripping!!

you should take that somewhere and have the coolant drained for you. It's illegal just to release that ish into the atmosphere

There are lots of shops around here that also do AC. They're mostly gas station combo AC, or smog combo AC shops.
