Default 944 NA Convert to R134A in Cincinnati

I've searched forums for recent posts about changing over the A/C to R134A. I've done this on an 1990 Volvo with success, I just bought a kit from FCP Groton.

Does anyone offer all the pieces in a kit? I read in the past that Jiffy lube did it for someone (circa 2002) for 140.00. I would think that would be the way to go but they don't seem to offer that anymore at least not on their website.

Any suggestions?

If you want to do the best conversion and plan to keep the car ....

Here the the DIY (excellent btw)

The kit is available from a Rennlist sponsor:

OR

You can do it for less. Vacuum system and check for leaks. Check the compressor for oil leaks by the front shaft--reseal.

Pick up a receiver dryer, "O" rings, a can of flush, a couple of cans of R134a and DIY.
