How do I replace the heater coil on this truck? Do I need to remove the dashboard in order to access the coil?

Thanks and Happy New Year!

yes you need to remove the dash. after i belive the early 1990's they moved it from behind the glovebox to behind the dash, to make you take it in to a dealership. turning a 30 minute job to a 7 hour job.
