    I broke the capillary tube coming out of the ac thermostat while taking
    apart the dash. I see that it is only a $35 part, but i am wondering
    what kind of a job it is going to be to replace. I can't find any
    information on it in my manual, on the car i just see the end of it
    disapearing into the insulation around one of the ac pipes. If anybody
    has any experiance with replacing this I would love to hear from you.
    Thanks!

    Hose clamp it and the capillary tube from the expansion valve to the
    outlet pipe of the evaporator (Low side, larger diameter pipe). Recover
    with insulation tape.
