Want to add A/C to 318ti

[318ti]

I would like to add A/C to my 1999 318ti.

Anyone ever attempted this operation?

Thanks

i was under the impression that a/c was standard.

Apparently not in Canada..... unless previous owners renoved it.

interesting.

well, i know that you can pick up rebuilt compressors for about $80, but i have no idea where to feed the hoses or whatever. do you have the switch for the ac? (to right of HVAC dials, between defrost and circulate)

No Dials that I can see.
Here is a clip of the dials

Thread bump... My old car was in a wreck and had really cold air so in theory I should have all the parts I need.

Just found the dream replacement car only it does not have the A/C... any leads on how to go about the swap would be great!
