Steam from heat vents
Last night I had the heat in in the car for the first time since I bought it and I noticed this happening, I'm thinking heater core? If so what am I looking at $$ wise and how hard is this?

Heater core sounds right..
Either Bob Dillion or Bill Buttermore just did one and had a great write up.. I think about $30...plus heater hoses are a must on any car over 100K or 5 years old when doing this.

Any idea on what part number I need? There seem to be different ones depending on year? Some I have seen say 92 and others say 92-93, is there some differnce somewhere down the road?

I typically hop out to either GMPartsdirect.com or Advance (local for me) to get parts/prices.
If you can wait...Ebay is usually tough to beat for any prices.
