I've done it twice - on a '70 220D and a '76 300D - both W115s. The proper way per the factory repair manual takes 16 hours to R&R - remove the dash, all the heating ducting, etc. The second time IPulled it out through the front center speaker hole - enlarging it just enough to pull the fan out, then put the new one in. That time it only took 8 hours. A lot of that time is spent lying on the floor - would be easier with the front seats removed. I wouldn't try it today - I'm not as limber as I was in the '80's and '90's.
