"How do i do this?"

1. Unhook the 2 hoses under the hood running to it, and try to get as much coolant out as possible.

2 learn new and interesting ways to twist and contort your arms to unhook the plastic boxes under the dash(this is alot easier if you dont have AC)

3. Pull out plastic box with heater core in it

4. replace heater core

5. see 2 but this time putting the stuff back on

6. hook up coolant lines under hood

7. fill and bleed coolant.
