Default Fitting Air con to a non air con Mk 6 Escort?

I know it would be easier to find an Escort with air con to begin with, but with an air con donor car, it ought to be possible to transfer all the bits to my non air con GTi right? Any one done this, or know what's involved?

I would imagine it would be easier to convert a car with air con into a gti than convert your gti to factory air con...

Buy a heavily rear end smashed car of similar age to yours and then junk what you don’t need and have both cars side by side and work out what goes where. I wonder if the ecu does any controlling of the pump etc....that’s the problem on cars the newer you get as one thing interacts with another.
