I'm also a novice, but this summer I took my van to my mechanics parking lot and I (armed with
list's 'how-to' posts) removed the dash.  While it was out, and not trusting myself with the
brakes, I watched as my mechnic took about 5 minutes to R&R the master cylinder.  I could have
done it.  But he said that it was MUCH easier with the dash out.  It did take a bit to bleed the
air out of the system though.   So if you have any reason to replace your front heater core and
fan motor, it might be worth doing it all at once.  m2cw.  M
