The heater core started leaking some tens of thousands of miles ago and I've been ignoring it because the service manual wants you to pull out the entire dashboard to replace it. I cheated and just bent the plastic housing enough to yank it out and shove in the replacement because fuck that.

The interior of a 2012 Ford Focus looking into the passenger foot well angled towards the center console. A new heater core covered in bubble wrap sits in the plenum waiting to be entombed in plastic like its predecessor. A flashlight sits on the support where the glove box once was illuminating the metal tubes of the heater core exiting through the firewall.
