I assume coolant leaking (gushing) into the footwells is indicative of a cactus heater core? (anything else it may be - '95 Cordoba?)

I'll bypass the heater core to keep the car going but can't find a lot of Cordoba specific info.

If it is the heater core is it a full dash out job or can it be removed with the lower half (centre console etc) of the dash removed?

I searched but couldn't find anything specific so does anyone know of an online "how to" for dash/half dash removal?

Thanks...

You have to take all the dash out and the heater box, but at least there is no kneebar, so its easier than a Mk3 golf.

Thanks Matt... sounds like a job for xmas/new year break.

Do you stock a new heater core to suit?

Yup, in stock mate, new or second hand.

Cheers Matt, I'll shoot you an email (if I don't shoot the car first).
