Hi, done a search but couldnt find the answer. I need to put a new radiator on my MY03 boxster and know how to get to it but cant see how you take the actual radiator out.

The radiator seems to be mounted on rubber gromets but i couldnt see any screws, bolts or nuts to loosen it. Any help much appreciated.

Thanks :renntech:

you disconnect the AC radiators. These are held in place by two torx screws on the inboard. . .

. . . and by a slot on the outboard. After removing the two inboard screws, carefully slide the radiator inboard. Be careful with the aluminum tubing, which is connected to some hefty rubber hoses. Make sure the rubber bends, not the aluminum!
