    Do i have to take the dash apart to get the unit out? or can i reach all the ducting with just taking the glove box out? i'm still going to run heat. AC was shot anyway.... 83 regal limited.
    Thanks.

    No, Just unbolt everything and it should slide out. The main support for the dash has to be unbolted and I can't remember if I had the front clip off or not so you might have some interference there.

    Wow, that picture helps A LOT! i'm not taking the duct work out, as i am still going to be running heat. got an AC delete, that allows for a modified blower housing to be re-installed, and the instructions call for discontecting the duct work and electrical from the AC unit. i had to take the inner fender out, probably would have been much easier with the whole front clip off. but i have limited storage space, (trunk, inside car) for the parts i take off, as i'm building this car at work (toyota dealership) and i'm no more than a well experienced aprentice. so i'm kinda getting the best outta my job, since both my boss and my mentor love muscle... mentor loves buicks, has a 67 gs400 compleatly restored... had a 500+ buick in it, but for now, (only due to lack of a better place to put it) it's getting a 500+ cube, blown chevy... NOT PERMINANT, only untill the camino is ready for that kind of power.... then the buick goes into the buick, maybe 2 years or so.

    But back to my car, it'll be easy to locate what i need from looking at that picture, thank you.
