Yikes... Well, I think I can tackle this job, it doesn't sound TOO bad. I've had the console and fusebox and radio and A/C unit out before so it'll just be like that, except all at once. :)

In any case, I think I will do what alchemist has suggested and put some UV dye into the coolant and look for the leak with the UV light, that appears to be the best idea. Man, this really sucks. I just dropped a chunk of money on the car not too long ago for the rear rotors and front bushings. BOOO. :-)

I'll keep you (and everyone) posted. I may take a while to get around to this unfortunately, but it's unavoidable. If I had the cash and ability to do this immediately, I would since I don't like driving around with a coolant leak or anything as it is.
