I had a simalar issue regarding a loan for a 96 GTS that was older than ten years. Called the loan officer at Bank of America and inquired if they had even checked the book value of the car, they had not. The loan officer agreed to check the value and I received the loan.
Did the conversion and it's not for the faint of heart. Actually not that hard if you don't mind grinding the crap out of things. Great updated look and have had no problems since installation 5 months ago. Thanks to jamesp(instructions) and Paul Scharf(parts). I've included some pics to help...
I also had the o-ring failure and replaced them myself. Leak was easily spotted at hose when I refilled with a can of r134. Used the cans to refill the system after repair, but it never reached the cold air temperature I expected. Took it to sears and had it vacuumed/refilled. Much colder...
Double check the hatch switch and make sure you don't have a pinched wire. My 96 GTS had this problem. The insulted wire had some how moved half way up the plastic shell encasing the switch.
Had the same problem and leak issue on my 96 GTS. Ended up replacing o-rings on the compressor. Had it vacuumed and refilled by a professional. Cost: $20.00 o-ring from dealer, $89.00 for freon. Works good as new…….may be worth checking first.
