Hi,
The bottom pulley on the engine has to be a dual unit. One pulley runs the alternator etc as per normal, and the other pulley runs the a/c compressor. The a/c compressor is bolted to the exhaust side of the engine.
I assume you have all the parts - ie compressor, evapourator, mounting bolts and brackets and the piping? I just got mine regassed last week and it pulls down to 4.1 deg cels. Lovely and cold.

note - the air con compressor is quote different between the 18RG and the 18rc. you will also need new pipes made up once you actually have the copmressor too.
