Changing the radiator on your car will not be easy; it is recommended for those with some experience. It can be removed in two ways: simply put, 'from above' and 'from below'. If you want to follow the first option, refer to the video.

If you prefer the second, you must first lift the car off the ground to work safely. Then, the first piece to remove will be the undertray, followed by the bumper.

At this point, to remove the radiator, it is important to note that the air conditioning system must be drained first. To do this, gently slide off (to avoid damaging it) the lower radiator hose.

Now you will have 'arrived' at the desired piece. Remove it and proceed in reverse to install the new one.
