    Bought a totaled 2007 Prius, fixed it up and thought I was done till I tried the A/C. Found a cracked compressor, bought one on EBAY and installed. There is normally a filter that has to be changed before adding freon, and I can't find it. Anyone know where to look? Thanks, Bob

    If so the dryer is located on the end of the condenser.

    If a NEW condenser was installed it should come with a new drier built in. The drier is part of the condenser, however, you can replace the desiccant bag inside.
