Default Blower motor

What do I have to do to get it out? Does it come out through the engine bay or under the dash?

Engine bay. It's easier if you start by taking out the puke tank. Then, reach around and under the fender. Remove the wiring, and tube from the fan housing. Then remove the four hex screws that hold the fan to the box.

Clean the surface very well before putting a new one in.

Hard to get it out with the A/C lines in place, though.

Certainly makes it easier to get the fan assembly out.
