Chris,

I converted our 87 Westfalia last year and couldn't have been happier. I did
it "right" with compressor removal and flushing, system flushing, and
dryer/accumulator replacement.  I replaced only the "O" rings in the joints I
broke apart. We took a trip to Louisiana with three adults and four teens
(middle seat option) when it was 95-98 degrees and 90+ on the humidity. Nice
and cool all the way.
