Don't see a link. Upper cabinet device is the evaporator. Condensor is up front of your Vanagon, with the radiator. on the lines going to the evaporator you have low pressure switch, high pressure switch and the high pressure connector (not all on the same line). Sounds like this is the high pressure line, which would have the high pressure connector (for external guages) and high pressure switch. And all this is pretty standard stuff that any good AC shop should be able to fabricate.
