Stock Shroud Removal
- Remove the single 10mm bolt holding the shroud onto the bracket
- Reaching underneath, gently squeeze the tabs on the plastic pin on the right hand side holding it into the bracket. It should now lift free.
- Looking through the power steering pump pulley you should see a single 10mm bolt holding the factory shroud mount in place. You may need to turn the pulley using a 19mm wrench (slowly and carefully)
- With the hole lined up slowly remove the bolt and bracket. Having a magnet right next to it will be helpful to avoid the bolt flinging itself into the depths of the engine bay.
- Once it's removed, take off the bracket the screw the bolt back in part way.
- The new bracket should slip in behind the head of the bolt. You'll want the bracket on top to have the threaded portion facing towards the alternator.
- Using a 4mm socket, install the short bolt on the right hand side of the shroud (closest to the emblem) and screw it into the supplied pin. Tighten it down with a 14mm socket.
- Pop the pin on the shroud into the location with the grommet. You can now move around the bracket on the other side to match up with the hole on the shroud. Using the remaining supplied bolt and allen wrench, screw it into the bracket.
- Once it's screwed in you can tighten down the bracket bolt behind the powersteering pump pulley.
- Now you can tighten down the bolt going to the upper bracket through the shroud.
- You're all done! Go out and enjoy!
