Red face Help on A/C Evaporator Leak,,,New Problem

Hello again to all. New problem. This is on my 2007 Dodge Ram 3500 4X4 Big Horn ed.
A/c compressor burned out and i redid it and the orifice tube and dryer/accumulator. (Installed all new stuff). Pulled a short vacuum and it showed i had a large leak. Checked all the fittings and all was ok.
Pulled another 2 minute vacuum and same thing. So i then pumped in a small amount of 134a and used my leak detector on all fittings which were all OK. I then used the leak detector on the vents with the fan motor running and it lit up and went crazy.
Apparently in the process of taking the old lines off the evaporator i got a little rough and managed to destroy my evaporator cause it now leaks.
So what i am now seeking is the detailed instructions on removing the dash and other parts in order to get the heater/evaporator box out.
Is there anyone that has doen this that can provide me with this information?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as after doing a preliminary review, i realize i am tottaly lost.
Thanks to all.

The evaporator is by the radiator.
