undo the drive shafts from the gearbox, undo the engine mounts and any connecting pipe work/wiring... wouldnt worry to much about the wiring as its all gonna be different anyways but yeah u could label it just in case....

easy, once youve removed the front cross member and the engine gear box mounts you can just walk it out... well that how i stripped an old 16v i had...

the front cross members out petrol wont go all over will it because it aint sent through unless pump is on is it
sounds straight forward then should have it out tonite

my m8 came to help me out today well he was watchin and i told him to tilt the car as i was takin rear bumper off to get car in garage further in a little gap and what did he do leaned on my panel underneath passenger side window pushin car
with his feet on wall i was takin bumper off at the time after he had ogne i noticed a big dent where he was creased aswell
pissed me off
