Radiator change out

RE: Radiator change out
i just did mine a few months ago.
raise the front of the car.
you'll be removing the headlights and that black plastic thing that they bolt to, remove the radiator cover and there are alot of wir plugs and connectors that mount to it so removethem too. go to the dealer and get the green transmission line clips thathold the lines into the radiator. i would guess that you have the belly pan, so remove it if it's in your way. there are bolts that hold the radiator to the intercooler and fan shroud,remove them too. remove the upper and lower radiator hoses and the radiator has (2) ears that sit on the radiator support. you might need a extra hand to help you remove the radiator from between the fans and intercooler and you will be dropping it out from the bottom.
i may have forgot somethings, but you'll see what you need to do once your in the mix.
