Just don't forget..when you're refilling the system...you'll need to get any trapped air out of the matrix heater unit behind the dash. From memory ( it was some years back when I had my Mk1 is200) there is a bleed screw at the bottom to allow you to do this. Otherwise you will affect the ability to heat the cabin and will have lots of delightful gurgling sounds coming from the dash area!!
