you cant get r12 anymore unless you have a liscense. you can buy r134a in the little cans anywhere. the conversion is super easy and cheap. ive gotten them for less than 15 dollars.

turns the system to run on R12 to R134a. converting it is really an over kill of a statement. all that your basically doing is putting different ends on your lines for the gages to snap onto.

then you just throw some fluid in the lines, put a vacume pump on the system to get all the air out and fill her up with the freeon

I have heard mixed reviews, if done correctly it will cool fine, if you use one of the universal replacements (aka freeze 12) it sucks
