The benz uses a cartridge filter, but it's pretty convenient. It's located right up top, you just have to be gentle getting it past a vacuum hose cluster.
Looking at getting the AC in the benz running. Looks like I can get compressor/drier/exp valve for a hair over $200 Figure I need to get a seal/o-ring kit, probably do new hi/lo valve stems and some AC flush....then the fun of chasing down R12...hopefully for less than $40 per bottle. I'm hopeful that I can get this done for about $400.
