The blower is a DIY, but get a friend or two for dash install and
removal. You will need that many hands to man handle it out. I think
the windscreen got installed after the dash. If you can have friends
hitting all the parts, you could do it in a few hours. Alone it is 10
hours shop time. Cussing and beer will make that longer. Meals will
really make it long. Shop time is 10-12 hours. That is why I did it
myself. Not worth $1200 to me for the dealer to do it. Blower is a
$400 part new. Find a PnP spare to install.
Winter heat is a pain with the blower gone. If you get a foggy
windshield, you really want the blower. As long as you are moving at
15-20 mph, you get some heat in the cabin. That is normal for blower
or no blower. With the blower, you get a wee bit of heat, but nothing
like when the car is hauling *$$ down the road.
