hehehe - surely you aren't serious.

If you can even get freon (very illegal unless you are
a certified mechanic) you need a recovery tank, and a
bunch of other $$$ equipment to do it correctly.

Since 1991, you only option is pretty much to go to a
mechanic, and pay exorbitantly high fees to have your
AC system recharged.  I have never had work done on
the AC system where it cost less than $500.  They
always find a 'problem' with the drier, evaporator,
clamps, hoses....

Unless you live where it is very hot, I wouldn't even
bother.  a totally rebuilt Westy AC system barely kept
my vanagon bareable in the Houston summers, and it
sucked so much power from the engine I got in the
habit of driving around in my boxers and drinking a
lot of AquaFina.

Just my .02
