not have them you need to get them.

3. Install line labeled A, starting at the firewall end. Make sure you have the correct size O-ring.

4. Install the line labeled B. It connects to Line A, make sure you have an O-ring on the end of line A. The other end will connect to the compressor.

5. You can now install the EK condenser. Using the supplied brackets and hardware secure it to the top. If you removed the lower tabs, use the replacements supplied with this kit.

6. Once the condenser is mounted, install line D which goes from the top of the condenser to the compressor.

7. Now its time for like C. This line comes from the bottom of the compressor to the evaporator. Bolt it to the bottom of the condenser, make sure not to damage the O-ring, and run the line all the way to the evaporator and install with a 10mm bolt. It runs alongside the OEM line.

8. Once all of the lines are installed make sure that everything is secure and is not in a position to rub or come in contact with the drive belt. You are now ready to move to the wiring portion of the install. 9. Take the relay that was included with your AC lines and connect the wires as follows:
96-98 Civic chassis White wire PIN 85 Yellow wire PIN 87 Blue wire PIN 30 Black wire PIN 86 12v in the run position Ground C131 19 BLK/RED on the stock ECU C131 7 BLU/RED on the stock ECU 99-00 Civic chassis White wire PIN 85 Yellow wire PIN 87 Blue wire PIN 30 Black wire PIN 86 12v in the run position Ground ACC A17 BLK/RED on the stock ECU ACS A27 BLU/RED on the stock ECU

10. Next make sure that you connect the wire from your old AC compressor to your new AC compressor. This should be a connector with one pin located on your driver side. You will need to extend it to your new compressor. It is also recommended that you take the connector from your stock AC compressor so that everything mates up nicely.

11. Once the AC lines are installed and the wiring is complete you must take the car to a certified AC technician to have the AC system charged. Make sure to have the technician pressure check and test the system before you leave incase an O ring has been damaged during installation.

You have successfully completed your AC Line Install!
