removal of air con rad?

[karl c]

Has anyone had to do this or know the way to get the rad out,looking at mine it doesnt look easy so best to know what im doing before i jump in feet first!The rad has sprung a leek so its got to come out some how.
Any advise on when the rad is fitted during the build could also be helpful as i guess it comes out in reverse order.

Thanks Karl.

There are four bolts holding the rad to the alloy brackets, acouple of pics to to show you.

Thanks Graham iv now managed to get it out, i could see all the bolts but getting to them was a differant matter,petrol tank filler removed,top bracket removed,fan removed,bottom bracket removed with a lot of cursing, final pipe clip taken off and it wriggled out
dont know if i did it the hard way but its out!

Yes that was the hard way.
If fitted correctly you should have been able to undo the bolts holding the top bracket to the body, swing the unit inboard and lift it out. The bottom bracket should just be retained between the rubber strip and the tank so it slides out when lifted.
