Well I accomplished it yesterday. I spent 3 hours Wednesday night and 12 hours yesterday. About 6 of those hours were spent trying to get at the blend door motor screw against the firewall. BTW, only 3 of rhe 4 mounting screws were installed. The difficult one wasn't even completely tight! Great job, FORD!!

Anyway, the dash removel and installation was not that bad. My only access to the motor was over the top of the dash and thru the gap on the right side. Yes, my arms and fingers are scratched up. I could pull out the dash only as far as the cables would allow me. The console shifter had to be dismounted and moved back.

To gain access to that one screw, I had to remove the bulkhead insulation and go through an opening in the metal directly above the screw and a small verticle opening above that. It was a royal pain, but the AC and heater work like a champ!!!!!!!!

The cleanup including cleaning all the sweat off the seats and other pieces occurred at about midnight.

I have posted 2 pics on CVN. This type work is probably no big thing to most of you Ford folks, but to a none-mechanic geek such as I, it's momumental and I hope to never have to do it again!!!
