it doesn't take too long, but i do know it drops out from the bottom. it is more of a pain, (for a radiator), to change out compared to other vehicles. if u do this yourself you'll need to lift the font up, either with ramps or support with jack stands, take your time and make sure you have everything disconnected from the radiator before removing. if this seems too difficult then take it to a professional to install, or someone u know that has mechanical experience, if not yourself. hope this helps :wink:

Suggested Repair
Lift the front on ramps or jack stands, disconnect everything from the radiator, and drop it out from the bottom. If that seems too difficult, have a professional or experienced mechanic install it.
