It took about 3 hours but I decided to cheat. I enlisted a friend who is an excellent mechanic who works for a dealership.

It was a pita. After getting out the screws we had to remove an engine bracket to get it out. We decided to leave out that third bolt on the install.

What were they thinking??? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />
