Its a fairly big ordeal in these cars.  Check out the website http://www.coolcats.net .  Look in the TECH section for heater core replacesment.  The website is ran by one of the moderators of this board, Ericcoolcats.

I just installed mine and it's really not that bad. The only difference from the instructions on cool cats was that my 4 bolts holding the steering column up were 9/16 instead of 5/8. Good Luck.
