It appears that the heater core on my LT1 Trans Am needs replaced. I *think* that I just need to remove the glove box and I can remove the heater core through the opening. Is it really this easy or will I find that I need to pull the dash off the cowl like I had to do with my old 88 IROC? That was an unpleasant surprise and I guess I am trying to figure this out so I know what I will be dealing with when I start.
I am just curious about what sort of project I am getting into. Thanks. |

I'll be pulling mine pretty soon if you want it cheap. The heat and A/C both worked fine on my car but in the interest of weight reduction it's all going bye bye. I'm sure others that have already done it will chime in, but I think if you take the panel off the bottom of the dash and remove the glovebox door you can get it out through those openings.
