I learned (via the tech that helped me finish) how they "drop" the dash down...I'm still not doing that job myself anymore, though, unless the car is already apart.

There is a way to do the heater core swap on a Fox without discharging the A/C but it takes 2 people and is a bit of a pain....I've done more of those than I like to remember but being in the business I'm in I can't get away from doing them.....but I do charge what it's worth for the job and I still don't like doing them.
