I've got my carpet out and there is what looks to be coolant in my front passenger foot well area. Is this from a leaking heater core? If so, does anyone have a guide for replacement?

Yep, its the heater core. Start taking pass side under dash apart. If you are at all mech. Inclined it should be easy. If your not sure, take some pix as you go. Label rverything in bags and take your time with the plastic stuff.
