There is part, which I believe to be an air compressor, in my car that needs to be replaced, but I'll be darned if I can't find the part on any auto parts website, and it is in such bad condition that I don't want to risk pulling it and taking it to Auto Zone. It'll probably fall apart if I even try. It's located in the front left wheel well, just in front of the horn. If I could name the part when I call parts shops, it'll help a lot. Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Hi:
The AC compressor is on the passanger side and part of the accessories run by the serp belt. If that sounds like the part, you may be right. Is there any way you could take a picture and upload it for me to see?
