Dash disassembly

Has anyone had to take out the duct work of the heat and AC for any reason? During my wedding, my "buddies" poured flour all down my vents to sabotage my getaway. Now I have flour everywhere. How big of a job is dismantling the dash to clean out where the hot/cold air blows through?

Thanks

Thats a doozie. You're best bet would be pulling the entire dash out, and run some compressed air through the vents from the back side. There should be a few main bolts to pull the whole dash shell out.

either that or you can take the blower motor off, and blow air both directions.

Might want to have a fan blowing across the inside of the truck when you try to blow it out, so it doesnt settle all over the interior.

Well, first step would be to get a few new buddies. Write on my windows, tie cans behind the truck, use streamers, whatever. BUT DONT TOUCH THE INTERIOR OR THE PAINT! I have a wedding coming up and I will be in prison on my wedding night if someone did that to me. Good luck. I would guess you should just try to remove the vents, and get something to suck it out of there. Maybe a household vacuum cleaner hose? Sorry im not much help!
