Default Air Conditioning Removal

So I'm looking to remove my air conditioning unit. I'm not worried about the compressor that looks pretty easy to remove but the radiator that it is attached to is the problem. It looks pretty much self contained expect for electrics which are easily disconnected but there is a tube that funs to a chamber below the power steering reservoir which I am not sure what to do with. Can anyone fill me in? My Chilton's manual doesn't cover the air conditioning system b/c it illegal to expose fumes to atmosphere.

You can have it all I guess as long as you educate me about what everything is and what it does. Where are you located? I'm in Dublin, CA.

if your civic is a eg ill take the lines if not ill just take the condensor. And NO its not gonna just be a pull, while you take out the AC you might as well take out the ac blower,compressor,condensor and lines. and those lines aren't easily accessible.

That line connects to another line on the body after the PS pump, its easy to disconnect. You dont need to bother taking out 100% of the AC crap.
