according to my manual. The is a nut on the upper left side, a bolt on top, and a nut to the right of the heater unit. then that is connected by the heater duct to the blower unit.

Heater core removal

1 disconnect negative battery terminal2 drain coolant into a clean container3 remove the heater duct and disconnect the heater hoses from the heater unit at the point where they enter the vehicle at the firewall4 Remove the interior console5 disconnect the air intake control cable from the blower unit6 remove the heater unit mounting hardware and lift out the core
