There is also a series of fasteners at the rear of the evap unit at the ceiling level. In addition to that, the primary support is provided by 3 bolts along each side near the front of the evap unit. These bolts came in 2 arrangements depending on your model year. >> I forgot about the 3 little bolts that bolt the plastic evap housing on each side. These plastic tabs where the 3 bolts go into were both cracked on each side, and that, along with removing both side panels, resulted in the evap falling down from the cieling. Still would have been a good idea to support it with a piece of wood. chris
