The AC condenser got a rock ding and leaks...
I need to replace...
Do you replace from the motor side? ie removing the radiator....
OR by removing the Valance from outside...
OR underneath the car...
Probably a combination eh..haha
Thanks

You have to remove the complete front valence which includes the fenders as well, it's all one piece. After the front end is off the condenser is right there
