The fan and aircon units "join together" under the dash. to install, you need to mount the fan and the aircon, to the captive nuts already in your firewall, then connect the vent controls and aircon switches both to and from the units and dash control area. you'll also need an auto electrician to run power to your aircon switch as the wires are impossible to trace (they go to the junction box by the steering column). If you are lucky and have an aircon unit originally in your car, you may have plugs to simply connect to, for both the fan and aircon.
In the engine bay, you need to mount the condenser (radiator) in the front, and run the lines to and from both the air con unit and the compressor (which you will have to mount to the engine). You'll also need to replace the Dryer (by the condenser), as these items are rendered inoperative by atmosphere once exposed. Then install the belt and tensioner, and finally have the system checked and gassed by an auto electrician.
So the list stand at:
under dash aircon unit
electrical connections and switches for aircon unit
fan unit
electrical connections and switches for fan unit
hoses and pipes for compressor and condensor
condensor (radiator)
dryer (new)
compressor
belt and tensioner
electrician to gas system!
