I think the blower motor is starting to go bad. The fan/heater/ac all make rattling/grinding noises when they're on. Is replacing the blower motor hard? Where is it located and how do I get to it?

On the firewall about dead center.
Ir memory serves your model has the ICM and coil pack over the alternator so you don't have to worry about that, older models have them mounted over the "rear" valve cover wich must be removed so the squirell cage can clear. The valve cover is only 3 bolts, replacement gaskets on hand wouldn't be a bad idea. It's 3 or 4 screws and one electrical connector for the blower. You must swap the squirell cage form the old to the new FYI.
