I looked around for the a/c delete diy but I couldn't find it. My question is when I got the car I got it with some wires that were unhooked and so on...I was wondering now that I took all of my a/c out, what electrical connections can I take out? Also witch wiring can I take out for the Cruise control?

You can't just "take it out" its in the main harnesses.Originally posted by SuperTuner12010wat? -
I wasn't sure...I know on my crx it can be unpluged and done away with...Comment

unplugging and getting rid of are two very different things. Im crazy so i cut my harness before i put it back in the car and removed all the wiring for P/S, A/C, Cruise and anything else i dont have in the car anymore.

Well AC just has that main plug to cycle the fans and the compressor plug as I recall. Really not that much. If you take out all the tubing, condensor, compressor/bracket and so on wont cause anything you just wont have AC. You can always use your blower motor and blow hot air during the summer.

actually by removing all the ac hard lines,compressor,bracket your saving damn near 85 pounds. taking the a/c out there are only two plugs might as well leave them alone just tuck them into ur headlight and tie up the bottom ones to somthing so u cant see them dangling from the front of ur car. and for the C/S that comes right out i plug then unhook the cable connected to ur gas pedal.Originally posted by turbo90accordProject EX Coupe Coming Soon...

I got rid of my AC for weight savings. I know the condenser weighs 8lbs 3oz. I didn't weigh the compressor before I threw it away, but my guess it is around 20-25lbs. The lines do not weigh much at all. Even though the weight saved wasn't anything dramatic, I am happy with it. Parts to remove are: the compressor, the lines going to it, and the bracket, small wiring harness near P/S reservoir, condenser and lines going to it, evaporator (if you feel like removing your dashboard), and finally the A/C button lol
Sorry but it is nowhere near 85lbsComment

Evaporator does not equate to removing the dashboard. You just take off the glove compartment.Originally posted by rexload
