Got the RX back an hour ago and everything inside looks the same as it went in except they detailed the interior and exterior. They also polished out a scratch free of charge. Talked to the SA and he said it's not RX specific, i asked him what this would cost if it were out of warranty and he said you dont wanna know.

 

the Evaporator assembly is listed around $300 at Sewell Online. I imagine the labor is the biggest cost involved.

 

They needed 2 days for the job and my dealer charges $137/hour so labor wise its huge.

 

This is a huge job. Sorry to say that there exist failure modes when the whole dash is taken apart. It is a risk.
