Does anyone know how to remove the radiator support? As some of you know I got into a front end accident.
I know I can drill out the tack welds, but that takes for eeeevvvvveeeeeeerrrrrrrrr. Does anyone know a more efficient way? Please PM me and send pics or send me a link to a post where someone has done this! I really some help! Thank you! This post has been edited by mkernz22: Jun 30, 2010 - 7:29 PM |

drilling the welds is the fastest way, I used a step drill bit to remove mine, it took less than 10 minutes. --------------------  |
