Default Air con condenser replacement V70 2002 2.4

Hi all !
So I've recently swapped my v70 d5 185 due to ulez and got myself a 2002 2.4 petrol non turbo manual, just run in at 210,000miles !
I'm working through jobs on it and had the non working aircon diagnosed as a leaking condenser.
Was quoted ridiculous money for a replacement.
Im reasonably handy with the spanners and im planning to swap it out myself and take it in for a regas.
I've had a look and it seems like I can take bumper and slam panel off and get access from above and below and take the condenser out the top, then pop new one in and reconnect-leaving the radiator in place.
As its a manual non turbo there are no atf lines or intercooler.
Has anyone done this job, and are there any snags I need to consider, and am I being overly
optimistic!??!!
Thanks in advance for all your help !
