Hi Dominic,

The OE o-rings and switches are compatible with R-134a refrigerant. I have a GM service bulletin advising that. Only three things are needed. 8 oz. of PAG oil, service port adapters for R-134a and the refrigerant.

When installing a new compressor, it's a good idea to install a new filter/dryer and a new filter/orifice.

Best regards.

Marc
Please note this post. I've done exactly this on several cars including my current car. I usually change the orifice valve too. AC works perfectly!
