Will this condenser work with my existing AC lines and fittings?

This is a direct OEM replacement, so factory line connections match. Check that your existing hoses are in good condition before installation — old or cracked lines should be replaced at the same time to avoid system contamination.

Do I need to have my AC system evacuated and recharged?

Yes. The system must be fully evacuated by a certified technician before removal, and recharged with fresh refrigerant after installation. This is a legal requirement under EPA regulations and protects your new condenser from moisture and debris.

What comes in the box — do I get brackets or mounting hardware?

The condenser assembly ships as-is. It mounts at factory points using existing hardware on your vehicle. No additional brackets or fasteners are included; use what's already on your Leaf.
