'89 100 Air Conditoner

[Bob Turlington <bobbie@kcdm.org>]

I recently purchased a beautiful 1989 Audi 100 and a 1988 5000.  These are
my first Audi's and I've been made aware of the familiar problems w/ window
regulators, Automatic Climate Control Units, and other cheap GM parts.  

I've brought it into a shop to get the AC fixed and was told that I need a
new condensor and that the part would cost me $800, w/ labor an additional
$400!!!  Does this seem reasonable???

I really don't want to get screwed, but I want my AC working...

Help, please....
