### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy from the correct seller and get the right tools beforehand
*by K***R on July 25, 2021*

I first bought the kit from AiKai for $49+tax and received a kit for a Subaru WRX for some reason. I returned it and re-ordered it from North America A/C Distribution for $39+tax and received the correct kit for my 2007 Civic EX (the Amazon listing as I write this is now $59, so the price seems pretty volatile). After watching a few YouTube videos I was able to complete this in about 4 hours (I’m not especially skilled at auto repair but I’ve worked on my own cars for about 7 years). The snap-ring pliers that other reviewers recommended, the Knipex 4611A2, are not PERFECT for the job, as the tips are almost too big for the snap-ring holes, but they are probably the best tool to complete this job, as they are long enough to reach the deep snap-ring holding the coil in place. Just keep in mind you’ll have trouble getting the tips in and out of the holes.The 1 OEM shim on my compressor was .5mm (.023”) thick according to my calipers, and this kit from North America A/C Distribution included 2 shims that were both .4mm (.018”) thick. Both the OEM and aftermarket shims had an internal diameter of 10.0mm, so for those of you worried that the kit will include incorrectly sized I.D. shims, as other reviewers have experienced, then buy your kit from North America A/C Distribution, as they seem to have gotten it right. Using the OEM shim, the clutch plate was touching the pulley, so I used the 2 shims from the kit and my feeler gauges said the gap was .021”, which is .008” greater than the recommended .013” gap. I was worried that this was too much, so I tried sanding down a shim to make it thinner, but the steel they used is pretty tough because I couldn’t get it a single thousandth of an inch thinner. I installed it as-is and the clutch worked fine, only engaging when the A/C was switched on.As other reviewers had trouble getting the pulley off, I bought a set of 3-jaw gear pullers on Amazon, but amazingly I was able to work it off without the pullers after spraying the inside with Liquid Wrench Penetrating Oil (I’m sure other brands will work too). I was also lucky unscrewing the grounding wire without stripping it using a Phillips head bit on a 1/4” ratchet. Basically, spray stuff with penetrating oil if you fear them getting stuck.You will need to unbolt the A/C compressor using a 12mm socket in order to pivot it slightly to get the pulley off, and you can hold the clutch plate still while you take off the 14mm nut using a pry bar against the three rivets on the face of the clutch plate, so you don’t need a special tool to hold it. You can also get the belt tensioner to loosen with a 19mm wrench, levered using another wrench (watch YouTube to see how they arrange the lever).This project was a PITA, but you CAN do it yourself if you have basic mechanical experience and prepare for it by getting the right tools before hand. It’s sure as heck better than paying several hundred to replace the whole compressor, and this part is way cheaper than the clutch kit from the Honda dealership at $160+ (oddly, O’Reilly doesn’t carry any clutch kits for this car). Good luck, and don’t buy from AiKai.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works great
*by T***W on August 6, 2025*

Fit our Civic great. Wife's AC was broken, and replacing this did the trick

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's a good kit, give it a shot.
*by T***T on September 29, 2016*

This assembly solved the problem a lot cheaper than taking the car to the shop where they would have undoubtedly recommended the replacement of the whole compressor. Give it a shot if you are thinking about it as the included directions are very straight forward. A car lift is helpful but you can do this job on jack stands if required. Buy the tool to take out the plastic clips that hold the inner fender well and other plastic clips that hold on the front valence. The 5$ is worth it to avoid the aggrevation of pulling those clips with a screwdriver. I would have given 5 stars though I had to re-use one of my old snap rings as the new one seemed a bit too big.
