You access it from inside the car, remove the parcel shelf and you should be able to get to it. You will have to disconnect the heater controls also in order to be able to remove the unit.

yes the heater motor is on the other side of the unit, so the whole unit needs to come out.

Remove the glove box too - then it's easier to slide to whole unit left and down to remove it.

Heck, I really did not think they suffered that much, so have slung quite a few out over the years. May have one at Banbury stores. Hopefully can help if you don't have any luck in the meantime. Won't be able to check for a few weeks, but at least you have a long stop...I hope!
