I've done it on my 80 series before, but not on the lux. It wasn't terribly difficult. You just need circlip pliers to get the circlips off. Assuming it's similar to the cruiser, the AC compressor will have a "snout" on the front where the clutch and pulley is. Inspect the snout closely for damage. A clutch failure can sometimes cause the pulley to grab onto the snout and cause damage. If the snout is damaged, you pretty much need a new compressor.
But apart from that, it's just a matter of pulling the old one off, and fitting the new one.
