I have a chevy cavalier 2001 2.2 car. I have been reading online and getting idea from Haynes.

So fat I know that I will have to remove starter, compressor and Engine strut mount bracket to remove the oil pan.

I went underneath the car and seems like difficult part is to remove the bracket. Do I have to have to remove the oil filter extension also? How does it look like?

To me it seems like I can remove the oil pan once I remove the strut mount bracket. I know about fixing car, but not a pro. Here is one picture

Any help would be appreciated.
