Thanks,

Lotta f'n work with the mark...i read somewhere that you need to even go as far as removing the drivers seat or somethin.

you can tell its broke one way, if your windows start to steam up. if you get drops on the floor, if your temp of the heater isnt right....this and that.

The drivers seat? The core is in front of the passenger seat. I would think if a seat needed to be removed it would be that seat. But I don't know. I have heard that the dash needs to come out and I have also heard that it doesn't. So I was hoping someone that knows could clear this up for me.

But thanks for your input.

Yes yes,Removing both seats makes it easier, entire console and the entire dash has to come off.Then you have to pull the box apart.its a days work easy.Just make sure you have patience and bag all the nuts and or bolts you take off.You also have to drop the steering column
