I know this has been discussed before but are there any current vendors for a/c lines? I need the line from the firewall to the compressor (P/N:64531394234) but with the correct fitting for the e36 compressor.

If you can’t find a specific part, a local custom hose fabricator will be able to help. You may need to bring them junkyard sourced fittings.
We have one shop here in West Palm; I’m sure there are ten in Atlanta. I called mine regarding transmission lines and their prices were surprisingly competitive.
Good luck!Jon (OO=[][]=OO)

You don't even need a local tig welder. use the e36 compressor ends and the e30 body ends. You can buy 5.00 spicer from amazon and have a local hose shop crimp them for another 20.00Comment

The way I look at it is 30.00 for spicers and a shop to crimp or 100.00 for someone to weld them.

Another one of my concerns was that my schrader valve port was corroded before, causing a leak. And also the m42 line is shorter. I stumbled across a new aftermarket e30 m20 line made by Four Seasons for only $65.
I suppose I'll try to have my e36 fitting welded on as I'd rather not mate my new line to 20+ year old rubber. Really hoping I can get this sorted soon. I need A/C in my e30!!'90 325i - 5 speed coupe
