I have given DIY instruction about this to 2 or 3 people on this forum, and they have found it useful. So here it is:

These instructions apply to G2 models, although there may be subtle differences between a '91 and a '95, coupe, sedan, trim level etc. From my '91 LS sedan:

1. Remove glovebox:
i.) pull down the cloth trim at the top inside the glove (pull on it, it's just clipped in, but be careful not to rip.)
ii.) Remove the lower trim panel at the top of the footwell (flathead plastic trim fasteners, 3 of them, then pull out panel out and down, disconnect courtesy light harness)
iii.) Remove the 4 glove hinge bolts at the bottom of the glovebox.
iv.) Behind where the cloth trim was, disconnect the string leading to the slow-letdown shock (I think comes apart at a plastic piece near the shock)
Once you have the glove off, take apart the glovebox frame.
2. take off the trim panel on the right side of the dash (the vertical part that matches up with the door, pull on it, just clips)
3. take off the two inside panels on the glovebox frame.
4. Remove the 8 zillion screws and bolts on the glovebox frame, including the U-shaped latch. Remove frame. (it takes a little effort)
5. disconnect all wiring harnesses leading to and around white plastic blower housing, including the two big harnesses at the bottom right of the footwell. Its good to label them. (about 5 or 6 harnesses total)
6. Remove carpet-covered kick panel on the right side of the footwell, peel back the carpeting on the floor, enough to allow the housing to come out.
7. Remove the mounting bolts holding the housing to the firewall and dash. (about 5 or 6)
8. Remove housing. (this takes some effort too)
9. Once you have the housing out, motor removal is pretty obvious.
I highly recommend a carefully operated power drill (w/ a long philips bit) to perform most of the work.
I'll elaborate further on anything if anyone needs it.
