Need help on removing heater core?
The heater core is located behind the glove compartment.
You will need to remove the two heater hoses that enter the
firewall on the passenger's side. They are right next to each
other. Now, remove the glove compartment. The heater core
is behind it. Remove the bracket holding the core. Now,
remove the heater core. Installation is the reverse. Make
sure you have the heater core top side up. This job should
take you approx. 40 minutes.

Check manuals to see how much stuff you have to take out to get to it. You can check under the dash board, usually on the right side. To make this easier, take out:
right side seat
glove compartment drawer and cover
center console
Under the hood, go to the firewall. Disconnect the two heater hoses that pass through the firewall to the heater core.
i think you have to drop the heater box.its more time consuming then hard.
