A/C deletion: what is that?

Hi,

I deleted my A/C system almost 2 years ago, thinking I cleared everything.
A question remains regarding a post on used parts .
Here is the picture and circled the part.
Can somebody tell me what it is???

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.

That looks like the evaporator, that is the fin/coil that gets cold and the fan blows air across it.
The other larger fin/coil is the condenser that normally is installed on the rear decklid grill.
You should find the part you circled inside a plastic housing which is usually next to the blower fan.

Agreed on evaporator. Usually resides in "smugglers box."

OK,
which means that this big rectangular block fits into that:


Thanks all.
That was not entirely clear to me!

I was asking, because when I bought the car, there was no rear condenser, no compressor, and no evaporator/blower… I saw some blower but never this exact piece.

Yes Mat. As I recall, the open smugglers box you show... that space goes all the way to the floor board. There's an air cavity at the bottom, the evaporator above that, then the fan on top which we see the casing for in your photo.
