If you are, indeed, talking about the fan under the dash---part of the A/C console that runs along the bottom of the dash--- it's not much fun to work on(few things under a dashboard are). After you remove two screws, one on each end of the console, that brace and support the A/C console to the dash, (the console is then held up by a formed sheet metal bracket that runs the length of the console and fits over the lower lip of the dash) you can push the console forward and then lower it into the floor of the car. You must then remove several small screws that fasten the vacuum-molded portion of the console (the part you see when seated in the car)to the main body. After you have pulled the two control knobs off their shafts, the cover can be removed. The fan should then be accessible.
I have removed and replaced the unit by myself, by providing a temporary support under the unit, but it would be much easier with a helper. The unit is pretty heavy and it's hard to get much leverage in such a confined space. When replacing the unit, you'll first have to position the console well forward of the lower edge of the dash, lift it into place, and make sure the sheet metal bracket fits over the lower lip of the dash. Then slide it backward so that the bracket fits over the the dash lip. The whole thing is pretty crude, but it seems to work OK if the brackets on either end are properly adjusted and tightened.

Oh, yeah---you'll certainly have to remove the seats, unless you're a real contortionist!
