It's fairly straight forward just watch that the clips holding the gearbox cooler pipes in place don't fall apart when you remove them (if you have an auto that is).

yeh i had one of those spin as well, i ended up grinding the original so i could get the radiator off. Then just use any nut & bolt thru the original mounting
