I just received a new fan blower & motor for my 350SD (from eBay seller Mercedes991) and I'm wondering if this is something I might be able to do myself. I have decided that the injector rebuild is out of my league, so I will be leaving that to a professional. Perhaps I can save a few $ by doing this job myself... what do you think?

I have attached a picture of the fan I received - would someone please confirm it is the right part first? Thanks!

From there, where do I begin to install it? I have been told it is behind the glove box liner - is that correct? If so, how do I get in there - are there any particular things to be careful of?

Thanks for the help! It will be nice to have my fan running again - especially since it's getting a little too cool to cruise around with the sunroof wide open all the time - high temps projected around 68F here in Las Vegas next week!!
