Sanden a/c compressor in 318i m10?

[alpinewhite318i]

Is anyone using an aftermarket Sanden a/c compressor in the m10? Just looking for some thoughts and maybe an idea on how to mount it to the block. I know most aftermarket kits are long gone!

I had a sanden 508 on my M10 and you are on point about the mounting bracket being NLA. That's your challenge

I also have a Sanden 508 compressor.
Car was fitted an A/C kit from a company called Diavia.
I could post some pictures for you. Would it help?

Check with bluntech.

Not sure if the 2002 setup would work?

I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to post this just in case it helps anyone. I have a 1985 318i with AC converted to R134a. I am running a Sanden SD5H14 compressor with an AC Solutions fully isolated M10 bracket with bushings. The Sanden compressor and AC Solutions bracket work great together. Good luck!
