Just replaced mine with the oem vw core, the core drops in easily in a couple of seconds (after 8 hrs of tearing apart the dash and center console).
Make sure you clean the antifreeze from the housing before reassembly or the smell won't go away.
One telltale sign the core is leaking is the windshield fogs up as soon as you turn the heat on.
Take a lot of pics or video so you're not left with a dozen screws after reassembly.
