glad to hear you've sorted it mate

I think there's one bolt holding it on, it should be on the end of a bracket that's about half way along the pipe at the top

its easy enough to take off just a couple of bolts if i remember, i had to trim most of my bumper away which i did with an angle grinder, but i suppose it all depends on how thick your cooler is
