If you have a r134a system, it's easy. R12 is no longer available to the public.

I went to Kmart and got a hose/guage/and one can of R134a. Between (under) the ECU on the right side of the engine, and the engine belt, is a small black plastic cap for the low pressure side of the AC. The black cap comes off easily with a wrench, but only hand tighten it when putting it back on.
Follow the directions on the can. Done!
Just watch out for the drive belt - it does a number on the knuckles.
