I have new radio and AC units for my 2001 Subaru Legacy L Station Wagon but I do not know how to install them. It seems more complicated than I expected. Does anyone knows of a good tutorial or manual on how to remove and replace those two?

What part of the AC unit are you trying to replace, the compressor? If so, there are a few specialized tools you'll need to complete this. Such as a vacuum pump and an A/C manifold to check pressures, to name a couple. If you don't have these and really don't know the process, I'd highly suggest you take your work to a qualified shop. Not something an average backyard mechanic can attempt and complete successfully.– Pᴀᴜʟsᴛᴇʀ2 ♦Commented Jun 11, 2014 at 16:48

1The radio is a piece of cake, to be honest. The hardest bit is popping the dash without scratching it, but then it's obvious. As far as a/c goes, the dash module is as easy as the radio, but as Paulster says, replacing the actual guts of the thing is not for beginners.– Rory AlsopCommented Jun 11, 2014 at 17:34

As far as the radio goes, you can use this tutorial. If you just want to replace the AC front panel box I am sure you can figure it out using the same tutorial. But as said in the comments, if you want to work with the AC unit itself, better take it to a shop.
