Couple of thoughts:
  1. Are you sure the problem is the blower motor? If it works at the highest switch speed, then the motor is fine. Need a new resistor.
  2. If it's like my `97, then the motor comes out from the engine side of the firewall. Three screws and you can wiggle it out with some care.
Hope you have a nice warm garage to work in.
