all the tools that u need to put a radiator is a 10mm ratchet, a small flat head screwdriver (to unclip wire connectors) and pliers to unclip the hose clips. just remove the cross member on the top of the radiator. unclip the hose. once u remove the top crossmember, and unclip the fan wires on the bottom near the downpipe, just slide the radiator out. but, there will be a nasty dirty hose attached to it on the bottom and u gotta remove it too. so have someone else with you who can give u a hand. just to hold the old radiator up. and flush the whole system before u pull out the radiator caus eu dont want the new radiator to get all the crap in. and this would be a best time to also pull out the coolant resevoir and have the insides cleaned out with a brush. takes about 30 mts to do all this. Not a big deal have fun and good luck.
how much is the radiator by the way?
