Expect a weight savings of around ~45 lbs.

I plan on doing it when I find me a beater to drive. Remove AC, remove and loop the PS and remove the window washer bottle, hoses and such. Not only for weight but to clean the engine bay up a little also.

Removing the Ac in Cali is probably sucide for a daily driver.

I'm really debating pulling mine out to compensate for the autopower roll bar that will probably be going in later.

Decisions, decisions.

&lt; lives in Alabama and currently driving his non A/C equipped beater hatch.

had many thoughts of ripping out my A/C but living in las vegas with 114 degree temps in the summer time kinda made me second guess that option.. Just rip out the seats and go on a diet
