The fox body heater core replacement is no top contender for the ridiculous repair list, but it'll be kind of a pain. It's not fun like upgrading or modifying one's car either. Then again, it'll be nice to have a working heater and air conditioner again.

You will have to disconnect the A/C lines that go through the firewall in order to remove the heater core. And in my opinion, removing the heater core in a Fox body does rank right up there.
