Replacing the heater core is an all day if not an all weekend affair. I just recently replaced one in a heater box that I have removed and is sitting on my workbench. I removed it completely because I had to replace the cars' wiring harness from the fusebox out to the engine. Since I already had the wiring harness (and the dash of course) out of the way, I took the opportunity to go ahead and replace the core. Basically I think that Volvo took a heater core and said "Hey lets build a car around this" and that's what they did. It is sandwhiched inside of the heater box which is located directly below the center of your dash and against the firewall. I can't imagine doing this job in the car but I know that it's been done. Good Luck
