Once you remove the belt from the A/C all you do is remove the 4 little
bolts and the clutch assy should come right off. (Disconnect the wire
too.)

First and foremost, I never respond to E-mail spam other to add REMOVE to
it. Its the only way to defeat it is not buy into it. 
Id check into them before proceeding if your really interested. There's
too many get rich schemes and "easy ways" being sold as non-fiction when
its all fiction.

Yah, tell me about it! 109 degrees here in San Diego today and at 9:15PM
the temp gauge in my MFA said its 97 degrees! That sucks, im just glad
all my cars have A/C including my house! I only sweated once today and im
not gonna say why. :)

Hey, Rick, I have a compressor from an 82 Rabbit I once had and the
clutch is still good if you want it, I can bring it with me to SF. We can
install it there!  HAHAHA!!!! 
Anyways, its yours if you want it.
