How do I Remove the Radiator

[Bobonacus]

Hi,
Changing the rad on my mums 02 micra this week, had a quick look, do I need to remove the top crossbar thing and then the rad will just pull out?
cheers

revove all the piping mate and then the top slam pannel then it will just pull out of the rubber bungs that alowe the radiator to move about so when you put the new one back in make sure they are bk in the new radiator

Does the slam panel just unbolt and remove or are there any welds/gunk holding it on?

4 bolts on the top pannel, scrape the gunk off then two nuts below the bonnet catch and two nuts behind that hold the support in place on the left of rad. Undo the pipes and out it comes, 10 minutes tops (Y)

I didn't sorry ... was all done far too quickly The only other bit is the two self tapping screws that hold the fan on
