Default For those that did the A/C delete

For those that did the A/C delete to clean up the engine bay, do you regret doing it?

I would have to question why on this. Get the lines from doolots and keep the ac. No way I would remove my cold air for under hood looks unless it was purely a show car. But to each his own I guess. Here's a pic of what it looks like with the lines installed. There like 225$ and they completely replace all the hardlines under the hood. He also sells the bracket for the heater control valve. You can't even see the lines as they run behind the motor.

I understand that is an option, my question is for those that DID delete the AC, was it regreted?

I know I did when my Ford Explorer AC finally gave out after 10 years, I failed to fix it... but the S is different, its a convertible.

I didn't have ac for almost 2 years, does that count as a delete for you?

I certainly enjoy the car more w AC.

The worst thing is lack of defroster

I only run my A/C once in a while to keep the seals lubricated. Not ready to take the plunge of deleting it yet, though.
