I've done it on an '88, '91 and '95. The '95 should be very similar to your '94, and I did find it to be a little different from the '91. Those bolts which Quasi hates, the ones he didn't reinstall, aren't present on the '95. Also, the wiring harness to the fuel injectors seemed to be permanently mounted to the false bulkhead, so I ended up pulling out the Trionic module, disconnecting its wiring harness and pulling the whole unit up over the engine.
Ahh, getting the friggin' blower motor out. It helps to unhook the hoses from the heater core. The blower motor housing is clipped into the housing around the heater core, and it helps to slide a screwdriver in either side at the very lowest part of the blower motor housing. If you can spread the tabs just a bit, you can get the thing loose. You only need to spread them a few mm. Then pull the unit forward, still attached to the A/C, then upwards, then the driver's side will be clear of the heater core hose connectors. You rotate the whole unit counterclockwise, and the driver's side comes out first. It helps to kneel on the valve cover and battery. Getting it back in requires this same rotation motion. Plan on about three or four 10-minute sessions to get final positioning, as it's very frustrating and can wear out your back. If you can have someone hold the A/C housing, so much the better.
