ive done a search, but couldnt realy find anything to help!

I want to take my aircon out system out to save a bit of weight, and it doesnt work either, plus its going to need to come out for my SC anyway!

the bits i think i need to take out, with out going nuts and spending more than well... erm not alot are...

The Compressor, Condenser, Filter/dryer/receiver and all the pipes i guess!

i have a ph1 gti6 on my drive i will be stripping, can i use the set up from that, just take it off and simply put it on my ph2/3 6, if so, what do i do!

Fairly straight forward but youll need to get hold of the Rallye aux belt setup.
