I bought a new blower motor resistor and I have no idea where it is to replace it. Everyone makes it sound real easy, just one screw and you're done. I'm looking behind the panel thats under the glovebox, above where the passengers feet would be. Not seeing it. Help?

Yes if you remove the lower panel under the glove box you will se it. The connector will be very obvious....:)

Once you take the interior panel off, there is a white casing, is it inside of this or next to it? I'm sure it will make sense when I comapre it to the diagram, just havent had a chance to look again yet

There are no stupid questions. If everybody was an expert we probably wouldn't need this type of forum. We all have different levels of expertise, its this forum that brings all this knowledge to one place. Many repairs or diagnoses are trial and error. The more experience the easier the diagnoses, maybe.

Hang around here longer you'll change your mind ;)

-Sit in the passenger seat, stretch your feet out
-Raise your feet straight up: this panel that your feet bump into you must remove. There are a few screws right where the glovebox hinge is (should be three)
-Remove panel
-In the center and slightly above where the panel laid there will be a small wire bundle with a connector clipping into something in the firewall
-Take clip off (6 wires I think?), unscrew screw, slide the resistor box to the side (you'll know what I mean)...laugh at how old it is
-Reverse for installation
