2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Tips on replacing a\c in dash

[MD500E]

I have narrowed down my freon leak to the evaporator core in the dash. Any tips before I begin to rip and tear into the dash? Thanks

it was covered last summer in the TDR magazine. It's going to take a ton of time. Good luck.

The first one won't be fun but after doing a few they aren't bad compared to most others,

Dont be scared of it it. I havent changed the AC but I do have my dash pulled down that far right now. I took me 3. 5 hours to get it disassembled but 2 of that was removing the upper dash that I am repairing. It is actually pretty simple, just be prepared to cuss about 30 times when things dont want to work just right. It is mostly an exercise in patience and frustration control.
