VX Heater Core Removal Help please

[smokin_vx]

Hi Guys, I have read a few posts on this but am unsure as to what exactly i need to remove to get to the heater core.

Do i need to remove the actual complete Dashboard? Or just the dash surrounds ie; Dash cluster and area around the A/C & Heater controls.

If anyone can point me in the right direction i would really appreicate it.

Just to let you know I just bought this one and the previous owner has redirected the heater pipes under the boneet so I can only assume there is a leak in the Heater Core or Heater Core hoses.

Is there any tips on how to go about fixing this without taking it to the stealership?

Thanks guys!

in short remove the ENTIRE dash to replace the heater core. while your there do everything else that needs to be done if there is anything cause its a terribly shit job to do imo
