I only removed the passenger seat.

As for the duct underneath the blend motor, you can just remove the one bolt on the passenger side that holds it up, and then "pry" the ducting down a bit....I did this with one of those "wonder bars".....pry bar....is very wide and gives you the leverage to pry down with one hand and then get the motor out with the other....you need to get the clearance for the shaft which is 1.25" long.....after you release the shaft, move the motor towards the back/firewall. Then you have to wiggle it around to get it to come out from under there. I have the actual Ford shop manuals and it said to remove the carpeting, ductwork, etc.

I consider myself to be a VERY good mechanic and can fix just about anyting. I am an engineer and an ex rocket scientist, so I can speak with authority. I think the engineers did a bad job on the access for this motor.

Good luck, and forget the duct removal...the pry bar is the way to go on this one...and I did not damage anything.
