You apparently have to swap your part (port plate) from your original compressor over to the new compressor.

Read in Haynes manual to take car somewhere to have refrigerate evacuated before replacing AC compressor. Then take it back to evacuate air and moisture before recharging, Is that really necessary with R-134? Would a garage even be open to that idea?

Surely. Call and ask your shop.
