Fitting an early a/c blown air heater matrix??

Well I seem to be embarking on a restoration and upgrade of our Holdsworth which means getting on with fitting all them bits I have stashed in the "vansheds"

The most daunting for me is the fitting of an early a/c heater matrix with built in electric fan

Has anyone seen one installed or know how hard this sort of job will be?
Will it be a "dash out " job?

Any hints / tips forthcoming will be much appreciated

Cheers
Andy

or possibly a 6 week intensive practical gynecology qualification? Install it through the radio slot?

Andy, the reason I asked for picky is I didnt believe a/c's had heaters
