Just searched on drier :

Next free the A/C lines from their mounting. With a 6 mm Allen wrench you can remove the screw that holds the metal line to the body of the car behind the headlight on the right side of the car. This will help the lines to slide forward when removed from the evaporator. The screw may be badly corroded.

To remove the lines from the evaporator the Ford-style plastic snap-on connector tools are used. The evaporator lines are ½” (inlet) and 5/8” (outlet). The lines should be plugged so moisture is less likely to enter. These lines are sealed with 2 0-rings each. A flare on the evaporator side of each line is held in with a “garter” or circumferential spring which the tool expands. The lines will probably not be easy to separate. I was successful with steady force. Needed tools are made by KD and Snap-On as well as others.
