My fan blower(air/ac/heating) has been making noise for several years (originally sounded as if fan blades might be hitting a piece of paper). Now it's considerably louder. I understand several years ago Mfg. Issued a tech notice to dealers on how to place an additional cover on the blower (or fan). This part can be ordered from dealer for about $17.00 (currently out of stock), but the people I asked were a little unclear how to install.
How do I remove the dash on the passenger side, or perhaps just the glove box, or both to get to this blower?
Thanks for your help.

it's probably the blower is worn out
Remove the instrument panel lower cover (if equipped).
Disconnect the blower motor harness connector.
Clean the blower motor housing to ensure adhesive strips on the back of the blower motor cover will stick (standard window cleaner or other all-purpose cleaner can be used).
NOTE: Be sure to remove all residual film from the blower motor housing that may have been left by cleaning.

Peel the protective coverings from the adhesive strips on the blower motor cover (see Fig. 1 for adhesive strip locations).
Install the blower motor cover onto the motor bracket (see Fig. 2).
