Anyone got a place in Perth they recommend for doing my air con?

My air con's never been cold since having the car so i assume it was never re gassed after being imported.

After a bit of a search, it looks like it will need the o-rings on the compressor done and receiver dryer as well, along with the gas.

I asked at one place a while back and they said around 200 just for the gas which is steep, considering ill need other stuff done to.

na propane works really good, you can get frost on the inside of your windows on a 40deg day!

All Auto Gas - Aaron Omacini 0402 911 350 is pretty good too. Got him to do the aircon on my old gsr and he done the orings and all. Not too bad on price too and he can come to you or you can go find him (might take $20 off or something)
