Hi Sam ,

Take all the "plastics" off , air intake ,air filter box , battery , ands the battery tray , all this to get to the 6mm nuts that are facing upwards ( 10mm spanner size )

Then after disconnecting the hoses remove the anti roll bar and lower rad support brackets then slide down and out towards the crossmember .

Not a quick job but l hope this helps,

All the best Clive

Any good Radiator shop should be able to recon your rad and fit a larger core ( with one extra row ) using your existing end tanks
( def helps cooling )
