KZN 185 3rd Gen heater matrix removal

I've done a whole lot of searching on this forum and the other surf sites and although there have been a lot of asking no-one seems to have the answer to can I replace the heater matrix without dismantling the dashboard.
Which of you guys have done this job and have you got the rough instructions to help. I've a couple of days put aside and I can't last this winter without heat 😁

Nope.

It's all got to come out, good luck, its a tedious job......

It took the whole day but i've now got heating in the surf
When i was under the bonnet i did notice that the fan belt was a little loose but when i tried to tighten it it the adjuster had pretty much rusted through and sheared

Anybody changed the adjuster on the drive belts?
