I had a mouse nest on top of the filter, vacuumed it all up. Then dropped an acorn into the blower squirrel cage, made the fan unbalanced. The acorn was lodged in the find. Reached in and popped it through end up rattling around under the blower. Pulled the under dash trim, 7mm screws, had to rip out the back right hand screw, up against the floor by the firewall. Then pulled 3 torque screws, dropped the blower enough to fish out the acorn. With maneuvering I think you can drop the blower. 3 hours of cutup hands over 1 acorn.
