How hard is it to replace? It just quit within the last week or so. I have checked to see if there is freon and it is full. I have found a replacement on ebay for about $100.

Its easy. Just have to watch out for clutch spacing. It should come with very small washers. They are clutch shims.

Are the ebay ones any good? I tried looking through the parts stores for just the clutch but they said I couldn't get just the clutch. I would LOVE if I can get away with just r&r the clutch instead of dropping a ton on the whole dang compressor. But I would like to know if the ebay clutches are decent.

Strange how different dealers are I bought my coil and clutch pack from a dealer but other dealers said it was unavailable? Now I did buy an early date coil and clutch pack for my 07 not as quiet but works great. MAKE sure you set the air gap correctly.
