get a discharge kit from napa or somewhere, discharge the system, un hook the lines, unbolt the 4 10mm bolts holding the ac compressor to the bracket and then remove it. then just replace it, bolt it on, and bring it somewhere and get it charged up for some nice cold air conditioning emoji

First discharge the system, then open the hood and look at the compressor there are 2 lines going into it. (1) 10mm bolt hold each line on. Unbolt these bolts and wiggle the lines free and off of the compressor. Next if you are facing the front of the car there are 4 bolts on the compressor facing you. Remove these bolts and the compressor will slide right off, the ac belt will come off when its coming out.
