Default Got condensor and compressor off, now i really need help!

Well that wasn't fun. Those condensors are hard to get out with one person :p: No that i got them out i need to know what to do with the black hoses that ran from the compressor and condensor. It goes somewhere behind the coolant resivoiur. ALso there is a thing that looks like an oil filter with some connections going into it. What is that and can i remove it? And what do i do with all of the elctrical conncetions that used to be on the compressor?

That is the dryer and yes you can remove it but it isn't very easy to get to. It also is attached to the evaperator. Some of the connections can be reached from under the car after you remove the dirt shield betwwen thefame and the fender. As for the electrical connections, Just wire tie them out of the way and leave them for future use if someone wants to replace everything.
