Thank you for taking the time to post. Good info. Replacing one on our 2010 CRV ... similar. Thanks again!

A small tripod/selfie stick from walmart would be great for these vids. Thank you for posting.

You can use the head of a metric bolt to insert into the plug, and pliers on the threaded end of the bolt to loosen the plastic plug. No need for that specialized tool.

You just saved my afternoon. Had to dig around for a 14mm bolt but it worked.

Thanks for doing this. I just replaced my compressor and I might as well do all this too

Right on, bubba. I'll watch this one after work. Thanks. I'm interested in seeing how simple/difficult it is to work on these newer Hondas.

Always put refrigerant oil on the white Retention Cap Oring - or you'll be sorry. The seal could micro tear or bunch up, then leak. Also, I would grind away a small semi circle of that sheet metal so the cap can easily be removed and reinstalled.

My bad I did that part off camera. You'll see on clip 14:01 it's got the pag oil on it. Thanks for mentioning that. Because someone would just put it in with no lubricant.....

I struggled pulling the old desiccant tube (dryer) from the evaporator. I’m buying a pair of SKINNY needle nose pliers to try in the morning.

[@camarobossman]

That should do it. It'll give you the tweezer effect. My best wishes to you
