I replaced the rear climate control aspirator, not fun.
Remove C and D pillar trim, coat hooks, trim across the rear at the gate. Removed the three push in retainers.
Working through the hole the aspirator was installed in I removed the wire then working with the headliner pulled down from the rear.
Then put the new one in, tricky attaching the wire, my arms should have been 4 inches longer or had a helper.
First I tried to reach through the dome lights to do this but that was a fail. Then I got my GM manuals out, they did not say to remove the D pillar trim and wanted you to work from the rear door opening after releasing the ductwork from the velcro, mine wouldn't release...plan "B" D pillar removal.
