How tough is it to replace the doghouse on a 2004 Chevy Cavalier? I rear ended a Ford Explorer and went right under her, ruining my hood, quarter panels, radiator, batter, and misc accessories. I'm wondering what's involved in replacing the entire doghouse has one unit?

Sorry Mark. I was referring to the part of the frame in front of the firewall, but realized it's a unibody. Maybe you can answer a quick question for me instead. Under the hood, there is a large coupler for wiring. I've got some soleniod trouble codes, and think they might be related to a broken wire on this box. Basically, its about a 3in x 2in plastic box with about 25 multicolored wires going in one side and 25 coming out the other. I can loosen a 7mm bolt and take the box apart, revealing bunches of pins that correlate to the wires. What is this module called?
