Here's some better shots of the truck with a real camera. All of the interior parts are sitting in the bed.

Thanks, I'll check it out tomorrow.
Here's a pic of my dimmer/headlight switch harness. I spliced into the green wire...my gauge lights come on and dim with the dash lights.

It's a job for sure!!! Once you get the dash loose you can swing it over towards the driver side and use some tiedowns to hold it while you work on the evap. core. It looks worse than it is, most people think it's real hard but I had the heater core out in less than 2 hours and put it back together the next day.

I was following the service manual for mine...I'm sure there are some shortcuts available and some stuff that I didn't need to take out that I did take out, but I don't see how I could have cut 4.5 hours down to 2 hours. Thanks for the tip on swinging the dash over. I've got my new evap and heater cores now, so I'll be working on it more tonight.

I did alot of trim and DVD installs and such when I worked for GM so I allready knew what tools I needed and what had to come off beforehand so that helps. Experience goes a long way on projects like that. Cordless drill with a flex-extension and a magnetic 7mm and 10mm are a must for that job.
