Best Answer

Follow your core hoses to the core to indentify it's location(should be on passenger side firewall) . You''ll have to take the top off the plastic box that holds it (consists of quite a few screws and a couple bolts). If the wipers tuck below the hood take them off or turn on your key and the wipers, when the wipers get out of your way turn off the key. Wipers that tuck under the hood have plastic stops, and might be a chrome visor at the bottom of the windshield to take off. Basically anything stopping you from getting the lid off will probably have to be taken off. The lid will also have silicon holding it, so it will pull off hard (peel old silicon off and buy some to reseal it). When you get the lid off just loosen clamps on hoses and pull them off (they will probably come off hard, and/or might also need replacing) and loosen the little tab holding the core down and it should come out. Then just put everything back the way it was, and will probably need some anifreeze after the EL has run. To remove heater core, follow hose to the firewall, inside firewall under dash is how you get the heater core out.
