R12 to R134a conversion / WTB sport seats

I'm looking for a complete kit or someone who can list all parts needed for a M20 A/C conversion. All help is appreciated!

Also, I'm looking for E30 coupe sport seats with rear (red/black).

If ur looking to save money on the AC conversion, why not use the drop in replacement for R12.. HC12a its called, and most of the AC repair guys are supposed to have it. As far as i know the conversion is somewhat expensive and I went with the drop in replacement as it is supposed to be the cheaper solution.

HC12a happens to be illegal in the U.S.(wikipedia) Looks like I'll need to move forward with the r134a conversion. Thanks for the info!

hello its really simpel the onley thing you have to do is remove your compressor let the oil bleed out!!! importend!!! en go to you local bmw dealer! and order these 64 11 8 363 259 Filling valve adapter

64 11 8 363 260 Filling valve adapter
screw them on and go to a garage that will fill you ac and tell them you oil is out of the system so they fill it up with a diffrent oil that can take on the r134a and your done

cost arround 45 usd

regards ELroy
