Got a leaking heater core in the above car, anybody know if this can be removed without removing the entire dashboard! Thanks in advance.

no but the dash would only take an hour or so to remove not a big job like everyone claims then just a matter of pulling the core out of the box prob allow ya self half hour to do that its not difficult job just time consuming

A dash removal and refit in that car would probably take me 1 1/2 hours tops, probably less. Plus a bit of time to remove part of the heater box and replace the core.
For a working heater, the extra bit of time to actually fix the problem is worth it!
