Pedro's site a has good write up. There a couple of fiddly fasteners that are hard to get to, but the biggest problem I had was the orientation of the spoiler, and wheel arch plastic. Be sure you know how they go together, otherwise, its a bit of a jigsaw puzzle to put it bac together. Just remember/ photograph how it comes apart and you should be ok.

thanks everyone for your help, greatly appreciated! checked out the diy on pedro site to remove fan. passenger side wasn't working at all. replaced with one from a parts car. wasn't that difficult just wish I had a lift, I did it in my driveway on my hands and knees. My back was killing me. Now I have to replace the resister on the drivers side and I should be good to go. this will also solve my fuses from blowing too. I need to get the durametric and see if the engine compartment fan is working.
