Replaced the heater blower fan on Sunday. What a PITA!
I was cursing GM for asking me to cut the fan cup with a utility knife. Taking a knife to the car scares me.

You can see the bottom of the fan cup that has to be cut out with a knife. Really hard around the back where the floor gets in the way.
You can also see the sound shield hanging down below. I augmented this with a layer of MLV and then a bunch of 3M sound batting left over from my doors. Makes the fan much quieter.
Typical hhr project for me: I can do this and save a ton! <mid project> oh crap this sucks I wish I paid the dealer to do this...
Proud it's done though
