How do you remove the evaporator inside the cabin? Ive removed all the R12 and was it just take off the dash and stuff or what? Trying to find the easiest way to do it on an S13. Thanks for the help.

I removed the entire ventlation system and replaced it with a super compact heater system

you need to remove the dash to get all that stuff out

so you take out the entire dashboard (including glove box) and is it just a few bolts that hold the evaporator in?

evap is inside plenum when you remove it you will need to make a plate to cover the hole in the heater plenum if you keep the stock unit
yes the whole dash it is behind about 60% of it

thanks for helping me out. I appreciate it but can I ask another quick question? well I was planning to get another evaporator from a junkyard or something so would I still need to make a plate? Why would I need to make one. I didnt quite understand.

If you remove the evaporator and are not putting another back in there is a hole in the heater plenum if you are not going to install another evaporator than in needs a plate
