Things you will need: Screw driver, ratchet set, flash light, a box cutter or sharp utililty knife and a container to catch the coolant. Parts to replace: The two heater hoses, the clamps at both ends, and the heater core. First, locate the heater core under the passenger side dash, remove cover about four to eight screws. (you may also need something to soak any coolant that may have spilled on the floor board.) Note: to help locate the heater core look at where the heater hoses connects to it at the fire wall under the hood on the passenger side. Secondly, drain coolant be careful not to spill any especially if you have pets.(No polluting the environment please:) Next, remove heater hoses from engine block this may require temporary removing few other items to get to them better or simply work around these parts. Then remove the hose from the core itself, this may require cuting a lenghtwise split to help remove them if they are old and hard to remove. From here all's left is to remove the heater core and install the new one in reverse.
