I'm guessing your replacing due to failure, the conversion alone requires more than just replacing the compressor. The filter drier needs to be replaced with a compressor change or a refrigerant retrofit. The system needs to be flushed, the expansion valve needs to be removed for this and requires new "O"rings. The Seiko compresor may use different hoses than the Sanden, There does not seem to be an easy way to tell this in advance as I have found different hoses used on Sanden compressors, and every Seiko I've seen has been different, but that doesn't mean they all are. Plan on using ester compressor oil, the PAG is for factory installs of R-134a only, if the smallest amount of mineral oil is left from the r-12 the PAG oil may fail.
