just changed heater core for 91 Nissan Maxima. I cheated and everything turned out great. first remove refrigerant from cooling system or diconnect unit at firewall and blow hole in ozone layer. disconnect hoses to heater core at fire wall.next remove lower dash and glove box.disconnect cooling unit by unscrewing two top screws ,two side screws and screw at bottom, unscrew vent flap on left. pull down and out on cooling unit.take channel locks and break off plastic pipes running through firewall twist and pull out. slide out heater core. remove plastic tubbing from new heater core and slide new unit in bracket . reincert tubes through holes by twisting and sliding them back in.rescrew back to heater core. this is tricky part because you have to feel top right screw with finger impossible to see. i used Phillips tip with extension and ratchet. place extension on screw then place ratchet on end.replace cooling unit , glove box, dash, vent flap,hoses and tubes to cooling unit. may sound crazy but saved me from removing entire dash and rear vent tubes as well as heater core housing. i now have great heat and freezing air.make sure to use old towel to catch remaining coolant in old core when you pull it out. add refrigerant oh happy day
