Question Changing The Evaporator on my 2000 cherokee 4.0

Hello all havent posted anything on this forum since i joined... here goes!
I have decided to change my evaporator myself ... and started removing the dash (no experience in auto mechanics) i got as far as the passanger airbag and said wait!!! Does any one have a step by step manual they can email me or something. Because before i screw something up i need help. Or if anyone is willing to beat that price located no more then an hour from BRooklyn New York! I went in blind and am realising how big of a job it is!

I too need the evaporator changed, so the Jeep dealer says. So, how involved is it? They quoted me $800.

Someone here or on naxja posted a step-by-step, with photos for each step, on how it was done. It was something like 54 steps and looked really, really painful. Do a search.
