A/c compressor o-rings

My car has a slight a/c leak and the dye came out where the 2 o rings are on the compressor. Can I use regular o-rings here or do I need special ones? The ones that came out look like regular black rubber o-rings.

Thanks,

-Jim

Personally since you already have to crack the system open, I'd replace them all while you're at it. An o-ring kit can be had for 5-10 bucks specially made for the AC system.

Where can I get the complete set? The auto stores near me only carry these universal a/c orings.

Not sure if it's universal or not, but I found it under 1989 pontiac firebird trans-am GTA with 5.7L
