    This and your R&R upper radiator hose videos are the best ever! And thanks for the Hanes manual recommendation too. I'm a 68yo Black female and because of your DIY video, I changed my 2009 radiator hose (with help of some "man hands" 😊to remove metal clip, etc) and saved myself $200+. Your videos are a GODsend! Oh, and thanks for the tool recommendations.

    If my theory is correct and you don’t wanna spend the time taking the top bolt out of the bracket then just loosen it and turn it out of the way, put the new mount in and turn them both together and hopefully they will go into place with a bit of force

    The OEM passenger mounts are no longer available, so the real question is is there any vaguely decent aftermarkets? I'm probably just going to wait until my oem gets much worse since aftermarket is supposed to be so bad.
