Yeah, yeah - I saw that coming, but seriously. I bent the car, holing
the condenser. Having fitted a replacement ( second hand ) the seals
are shot and I dont see the point in paying an extra hour labour at
the regas.

I wondered if anyone knew an easy source of such seals ( R134 )

Cheers

Can you confirm which seals you mean? I immediately thought of the
compressor shaft seals which are a common source of problems.

If you're on about the bog standard o-rings fitted to the aircon pipe
connections, then your local aircon place will keep a selection of them.
Or you can go to the main dealer and get them. Remember that they should be
coated with some air con oil before installation.

Yep - I'm on about bog standard green o rings.

Trouble is I can't find a local stockist to supply the seals, and the
car's too old for main dealer support!

Wondered if anyone knew an online site?

eBay? Item number: 150047694193 looks to be what you want - though in
rather too large a quantity!
