ok so I've been fumbling around for over a week trying to gracefully remove the HVAC unit from under the dash.
so far it looks something like this
The engine bay portion of the A/C is completely gone, so no worries about that.
I am still struggling to get the 2 coolant lines seperated from the firewall [not enough room from under the car to pull them off, in the process of getting that wire harness that runs behind the engine out of the way so I can reach them from the top].
but I'm really at a loss on how to get the whole HVAC unit removed. I have the lower most sheild removed. I have the cover above that I THINK seperated and can see the radiator thing for the heater in side of it.... do I need to stop here until I can get the coolant lines removed [they are drained]?
I'm getting to the point I think I need to remove the center support brace TEMPORARILY to be able to pull it GRACEFULLY. Am I wrong in saying that?
Can the center support brace be safely removed for a day or two without the unibody deforming?
