Cross member removal

• Drian and remove the radiator
• Remove two 10mm bolts at each end of the cross member
• Remove the grille
  • Four T25 Torx screws
    • Two visible at top
    • Two recessed at outer ends
• Remove the headlights
  • Two 8mm screws at the top
• Loosen the T25 at the outer corner, at about halfway up the light
  • No need to completely remove it
• Rotate the marker light outwards
• Remove the 10mm bolt at the bottom outer corner of the headlight
  • Try to mark its location in the bracket first because it affects the aim of the headlight
    • a dab of spray paint would do nicely
• Remove & disconnect the headlight
• Tug the intercooler/condenser assembly toward the passenger compartment
• Locate and remove the 10mm-head bolts on each vertical member
• When the cross member is loose (or loose enough to get the fan out), remove the fan
  • Two 10 mm bolts at the left end as you face it
  • One 10mm nut on the right
    • be very careful to avoid pushing the bolt back through the radiator and getting lost
    • replace the nut as soon as possible to capture the bolt
• disconnect the connector at the right side of the engine bay (as you face the car)
• Install the new fan
  • you can secure the bolt with a piece of tread or fine wire to keep it from pushing through the radiator
  • Pull the fan as far us as possible to keep it from dragging on the lower cross member
• When it's secured and connected, start the car and run the AC to see that the fan works OK and is clear to operate

• Assembly is the reverse of disassembly
  • Check the marker light grommets, at the back of the lights to make sure they're securely installed in the body
    • If not, pull them off the pegs, install them in the body holes and then firmly push the marker light pegs into the grommets; there's a notch that has to pop into the grommets.
