do you have the skills to remove the dash if so its not bad
Heater cores are the most pain in the a** to replace. They are up under the left side dash and right against the firewall. If you feel you are mechanically inclined, it shouldn't take you more than 3 hrs. to do it. If you can live without a heater, just bypass it.

How do you change a heater core on a 1993 Grand Prix? Is there a place to get details or can you give them to?
To change out the heater core you must first remove the area where the lower console is, behind the radio is the heater core. You have to remove all the hardware and remember where each and every screw goes, not kidding. It is truly easy to forget where they go after about 75 screws removed. Enter your local auto parts store and ask for a repair manual for a 1993 Grand Prix. In this book you will view the sequence on how to do this yourself. You will be required to use the necessary tools to complete the job. It is an in-depth job that requires skill, knowledge, and experience.

Heater Core
REMOVAL %26amp; INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Never open, service or drain the radiator or cooling system when hot; serious burns can occur from the steam and hot coolant. Also, when draining engine coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are attracted to ethylene glycol antifreeze and could drink any that is left in an uncovered container or in puddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantities. Always drain coolant into a sealable container. Coolant should be reused unless it is contaminated or is several years old.

How do i change a heater core into my pontiac grand am?
I can't afford to take my car to a mechanic so i need to know how to install this myself. what do i do
How do i change a heater core into my pontiac grand am?
my advice would be to get a chiltons auto repair guide for the specific type of car you have. They can be found at auto zone/advance/pepboys etc.. They have step by step instructions for things like that. Heater cores can be difficult, so it helps to have the book handy
How do i change a heater core into my pontiac grand am?
drain coolant
remove heater hoses and the little drain elbow from the out side of the car underneath towards the center of the fire wall.
remove cover from the bottom of the dash on Both sides of the center console
remove the floor vent from the center of the dash
remove the cover there are 6 or 7 screws in the cover there are two towards the fire wall that are pain in the but to get and one that is about one inch from the passanger side of the cover if you don't remove that one, and it's hidden very well the box cover will break
remove the straps from the heater core pull down and towards the back of the car.
If you get this far installation is reverse of removal If your not uses to doing this sort of work you will spend more money at a chiropractor then paying the mechanic to do it.
Good Luck
first you need to go get a good repair manual on t,,i can tell you some of it,,but your going to need a good manual also,,you almost have to remove the dash in the car to get the heater box out of it,,and actually its easier if you do remove it part of the way on it,,i own a repair shop,and do this for a living,,its not an easy job,,even for me,,but its going to take you a while to get it done,just get the manual it tells more than i can explain on here,,good luck,i hope this help,s.
As in all jobs that require a bit of work under the dash, remove the front passenger seat and driver's to if it's in the way. Only takes pulling 4 bolts and a connector or two. Then you can lay down pretty comfortably and not spill your beer.
