How involved is a heater core: '95 GrandAm?

[ragajungle]

If it is like replacing the heater core in just about every other vehicle - I am guessing the dash has to come out? Anyone done one of these on a 95 Grand Am?

I did it on a 92 grand am. Its a pain in the butt. Lower dash has to come out. Id also suggest a towel too, even after draining the system my buddy got too excited and yanked one of the hoses off and got coolant everywhere. Further more be careful of the hoses they are a hard plastic and oddly enough easy to break and a pain to find @ a parts store
