Default question on retro fitting a/c

i have a 94 honda civic with a b18b, i was wondering which compressor (d or b series) and which a/c bracket to use. i had "heard" that i could use a del sol b16 a/c bracket but im not sure if it will work. i know HT has very knowledgable techs and diy'ers so i appreciate the help!!!

you could stil use the integra bracket with the b series compressor but when its aligned only two bolts hold up though.

let me take that back im refering that method to the 96-00 civics

as stated:
Get the CRV (P7J) front bracket and you can use your D series compressor

whatever works man, that route you'll want to take is from the above poster. But i was referring to other alternatives in case others are reading. plus b series condensors are made by denso.

the biggest problem is that my compressor was taken off and sold about 6-7 years ago. does anyone have any good suggestions on one or does it not really matter? i was going to go with a remaned compressor off of ebay? good idea? bad idea?
