When I did this about 2 years ago I had the bottom splash panel out, but I needed to remove a lot of stuff on top too. The fittings plumb in on upper side of the compressor.
I did this on a 1999 SE, and I had the headlights and bumper off because I also replaced the condenser. The right (passenger) headlight has to come out on the '99 because it hides access to the low pressure AC port. I lowered the compressor into place. If I'd had a lift I would have had it up and down.
So no, I don't think this job is a bottom-only job.
Good luck !
