Default Where can I find a Complete A/C Setup for my car?

I have a 91 hatchback with an all-black interior, and I want to install A/C very soon. Where can I get the complete setup the cheapest? And is this something I could do myself (other than the final stages)? I've done the MPFI swap, so I would think it's easier than that. I'd appreciate any help!

I Have seen a few on ebay, but you should be able to get A complete A/C system from a salvage yard for about $300.

I have a complet B16 A/C setup from my crx, comes with 2 compressors (one has bad a/c clutch). Includes A/C bracket for block. Complete with all hoses. lines, ect. $125 plus shipping. I live in IL and will never use my a/c so I removed it the last time the motor was out.

They're discontinued. You'd have to find a dealer with a supply of NOS.
I know of some out there.

Yes There was thread about this about a year ago.
I was gonna buy an a/c kit from them, but then some guys posted, that after you order it they call or email you and tell that they're now discontinued.
So a bought a parts car that was going to the crusher that had a/c in it.

Anyone else have a setup for sale? And what about the little switch that goes with the heater controls? I'd like that too because my interior's perfect.

It's just the kits that are discontinued, as far as I can tell.
You can still get all the components as replacements parts, seperately, I just bought a new condensor from Honda last year, for about $250.00-300.00
And a "new" comp. will set you back at least 300-400.00
Where as the "whole kit" was only something like $500-600.00 for everything.
From taliking to friends who work at various honda dealers though, some still have NOS kits laying around in their warehouses, but it seems what most dealers do is just split up the kits and sell the pieces seperatly for alot more money.

The search won't use 2 letter words like AC, so how can I find if any setups are for sale?
