Re: not sure where to post... ac/heater box..
There are 3 bolts and a nut on the top side of the heater box on the firewall side. The nut can sometimes be tricky as the stud will tend to turn. It is inverted torx. A 4mm socket will also do the trick to hold it. Once those are out you will have to drop the kick panel on the inside of the car, and there are (IIRC) 3 bolts that hold the bottom of the box to the firewall. Once those are out you can pull the box off of the firewall. Take your time it can be a PITA to break lose. There is a double sided tape like foam seal around the perimeter of the box to seal it. Carefully pry the box from the firewall. It is firberglass and prone to cracking.
