Air Filter Relocation Fitting - Quick question..

[Zeldoz]

As above;

Was doing the odd bits on the car last night in the garage.

Had a quick look at what's involved really, i can see the clip that holds the standard EFI piping onto the turbo. But it looks a radiator out jobbie?

Can anyone confirm that's the case?

Any tips to get it on easier as it's space is limited by the looks of it?

I have looked for a fitting guide but couldn't find any really!

Just want to know if theres anything else i need to know before tackling it!

There is two bolts you have to undo on the pipe.Pretty sure its the aircon rad thats in the way not the rad? It's possible to remove it and put it back on with the aircon still in place, but it's a ballache and i couldn't get the jubilee clip to do up tight which was a bit dodgy.And i don't think you can do the relocation with the aircon still there? definitely wasn't enough space on mine

I have no aircon. Even the normal rad just limits your view and angle to get pliers in to undo the clip. Where are the 2 bolts?

I obviously know the ones up by the rocker, but wasn't aware of more bolts?..

Yeh they're the two on about. Mines held on by a jubilee clip so is easy to un do and do up. Could always take the bumper off, depends whats easier rad off or bumper off

If i can do it with bumper off only.. I may have a crack this eve.. I dont want to have to get the rad out it's a ballache!

i remember with the bumper off, and aircon out the turb was real easy to get to
