You don't have to remove the dash to do the air mix actuator.
Here is where it sits: (thanks, randman)
Here is a thread that discusses how to change it without removing the dash: (thanks, rmac)

Before you replace the actuator, let'* step back a second, here to answer one very important question: When you do have the system operating, do you get cold air at all, from any vents? If so, then the airmix actuator is propably not broken. The airmix actuator has nothing to do with whether you get air out of the floor vents with the system "OFF". It controls the door that "mixes/blends" hot and cold air to the temperature selected/needed. Again, if you get cold air out of the other vents when the system is "ON", leave the temperature set to that same cold setting, turn the system "OFF" and see if hot air still blows out the floor vents.
