Bit of a pain to remove as it sits behind part of the dash and its connected at the back by 3 wires/cables that operate which way the fan blows.

not an over hard job to do, i normally just take all screws out and then push it back into the dash and then tilt it down and twist pulling the passenger side out 1st, then unclipping the cables from passanger side, then just reverse order for fitting, should only take about 15 mins to fit new one :D

What if there is not enough space to push it back enough ? I was trying to do this today and no joy. :blush:

I've done it and its a right chew on, its easy enough to get out, but fitting the cables and clips back on, and getting it back in is a right pain.
