A/C compressor removal?

Anyone with a shop manual able/willing to do a quick overview of this procedure? I've removed the two bolts facing outwards on the pulley side, and removed the rear bracket bolts and the entire bracket that bolts up behind the oil filter entirely. I've still got this big hose leading to (coming from?) the accumulator in the way that I can't seem to unbolt, and the compressor itself refuses to budge. Did I miss some more mounting brackets or stray bolts somewhere?

Whoops, got it now- missed the top bolt on the clutch side. Now to figure out where the orifice tube is and how to replace that filter...
If any generous soul with a manual wants to scan some pages, the world would be a happier place (at least for my poor poor Aurora).

Dont know how close the 95 and 96 models are but just had my 96 serviced as you look at the engine compartment left hand side just back of the washer fluid tank is the two charge fittings inbetween these are a couple of fittings (3/4 and 5/8 looks like) unscrew them the filter is inside. Hope this helps.
