I've done the forum search but haven't found an answer to this:  Is it possible to add a/c to a classic mini in general?  I see in the parts section here listed a bunch of parts of a japanese system, but I'm not certain if that means it only fits on japan-spec cars or if the system just happens to be made in japan.

I live in a climate that REQUIRES a/c so I'm looking at either an imported one which limits my selection or attempting to retrofit a system if possible.

along with the a/c, I'll probably need room to run an upgraded fan and possibly a second radiator to cool the engine, so I'm also wondering how fast I will run out of room under the hood for all of this.

so, are there models that are easier or better suited to an a/c install? Is it doable for someone who is generally handy buth with not much automotive repair experience?

thanks in advance for dealing with my newbie questions!
