*TIPS:*

- use small zip lock bags to put and label screws and bolts - this will
help when putting back on..

- replace the 2 conical bolts under the steering column with allen bolts

- if needed label the wires with tape so you will know where to put them
back on

*OPTIONAL PARTS YOU MAY NEED:*

*REPLACING THE BLOWER MOTOR:*

- the blower motor box can be removed without removing the hoses of the
heater core

- pull the heater core towards you and it will be detached from the blower
motor box, leave it hanging on the side and remove the blower motor box

- put the the blower motor box on a bench and open it using a sharp knife -
you will need the clips at re-assembling, do not glue it back

- follow the instructions at this video on YT -
