 Those dashes come apart real easy. While 
restoing the one in the other Hornet a few years ago I had it 3/4 of the ways 
apart and decided to put a new heatter core in it while I had it apart. Turns 
out that was a good move cause the 25 year old one was just about to start 
leaking. Since it was so far apart I just poped the rest of it completelyout 
to make installing the heater core easier. When I got the new Hornet lastOct. 
it had the heater core bypassed so that was one of the first things  
repaired as winter was only 4-6 weeks away. Even without removeing the dash a 
heater core is not a hard job. For those of you that have a later Hornet or 
Gremlin with a vacume controled heater control valve there is a replacement 
avalible from your local auto parts store that also works on Javelins too. 
Since I have a complete dash apart in the house with all the parts I was able 
to double check all the things that needed to be removed. I only went outside 
for 10 min. yesterday for some tools and it was beautiful. I just startedmy 
new antibiotic yesterday and was not going to press my luck on staying 
outside. Did you check on the seat belts yet? That would be a plus for metoo 
besids the coil. This weekend is supposed to be decent weather wise. It 
appears we are a warming trend here in the northeast, but I always kept my 
snow tires on  my cars till mid April to be on the safe 
side.
 "Doc"
