Got a quote on a replacement Heater Core for my Jeep Cherokee @$1000. Heater Core was $50.....labor was $950+ (10 hour charge) !!! YouTube saved me big time. I did have to rip the whole dash out and the Grand Cherokee I have is loaded to the max so there were lots of plugs, etc. I ripped it out after work one night....replaced the heater core, and put the dash back in the next morning....SOLO. A mechanic friend of mine said I was nuts to do it by myself and that it was a big job. YouTube had a 3 part video of all the steps. Saved me a GRAND....and to top it all off, the new heater core worked, I had no extra screws and everything else (surprisingly) worked as well. A valuable tool for sure...youtube.
