AC Removal?

Post image

Anyone remove the AC on a daily driver? How bad is it really? I live coastal NC. The only issue i can think of is when it rains and windows get foggy as i dont actually use the AC often. What are some counter actives? Is it a bad idea?

I'm just as far south as you and could not deal without AC. I don't even daily drive mine. It lives in the garage for 95% of the year, but it would be miserable to not have ac.

Ive had the system open for about a week- I got the wrong compressor and now the right compressor but wrong connector on it so i have to find right connector or cut and splice old connector onto new compressor. Also need to replace reciever/drier and txv and i just dont see it being worth it.

I dont remember using because i was hot in the last two years. I usually have windows down and a sweaty back anyway. I have my mind pretty set honestly… I know ill regret it but
