    WTB: Some AC Parts and Some other Random Things for 89 325i

    I am looking for a complete A/C setup for my 89 325i. My car came with the whole AC system deleted, and I am looking to restore that. I need everything on the front side of the firewall - hard lines, hoses, condensor, aux fan, compressor.

    Please let me know what you have. I'd prefer to buy a whole setup as opposed to piecing it together.

    Thanks

    I have most of that here on an 88 Cab but never saw it working.

        It’s the really the lines I’m after. I would replace the wear components with new. Can you send me a couple pics?

          I would want to confirm that all of the components are the same between a 325e and 325i. I'm also not sure if the pre-88 systems are any different. A couple pics of the lines would be helpful in comparing.

          Thanks

            Other than the change to r134 compatible seals in the r12 compressor and the pressure switch configuration, all of the components are interchangeable on 6 cyl e30s

              But in my searching for AC parts I have found AC compressors that have two different types of line fittings and then I have found different suction lines from the firewall where some have a Schroeder valve and some do not. I guess if I find an entire system that is untouched, it's not an issue, but I may have someone who has the compressor out of my car from years ago and I would want to confirm the parts are compatible.

                I have a full system out of a 91 coupe. Let me know exactly what you need.

                  I need everything in front of the firewall. The two hard lines along the fender, both hoses that go to and from the condenser, the condenser w/ aux fan, and the compressor.

                      I found most of what I need, however, there are a couple things I forgot to get:

                      -Suction Hose - the hose from the firewall to the compressor (the one I got isn't in the best of shape)
                      -Radiator Temp Switch- the sensor that kicks on the aux fan (assuming it's the 3 prong version)
                      -Interior AC switch - assuming it's in good condition
                      -Radiator Temp Switch Connector Pigtail - two of the three wires on mine are broken off at the connector.
                      -Windshield Washer Reservoir
