I need to have my heater core replaced in my 1994 Pontiac Bonneville. Just wanted to get some tips/advice or maybe a site that could help me out. And how difficult a task is this? Does the entire dash have to come out?

I have a million questions about this poor car. Hehee! Maybe I shouldn't be saying "hehee" on a car repair site. Ha!
