So got replacement non oem rad and cond for $350 out the door from a friend at the dealer... I would imagine this should be pretty straight forward, and I found the thread on the install of the alradco so I should have everything I need... but I wouldnt be having to do this in the first place if I was a great mechanic, so any tips or info are appreciated.
Specifically on the AC Cond, anything special with that? Gonna have dealer fill it ofcourse when im done.
Edit: Looks like I didnt pouncture the rad at all, still pressurized when I took the hose off, got the ac cond out, dont think I need any help afterall

Typically you have to pull vacuum on your AC system for a while once you have it all back together to remove any moisture from the system. I guess if you're taking it to the dealer to have it filled they would do that too.
