It's been a looooooong time since I've done one, but IIRC, I pulled the
front off complete with headlights, wipers, etc, then pulled the rad out.
However, to pull the wipers, pry the cover back, there is an 5 or 6 mm nut
(8 or 10 head) that comes off, then they pull just like any other wiper arm.
I never put the two centermost nuts back on the bumper, just the four
outside the framerails.
The mounts are available from most places online, bought a few over the
years.
HTH,
Tony
