Its not too difficult, you ll more than likly need to remove the actual latch mechanism from the radiator coe support. THen youll have to re-align it so your hood doesnt bounce up and down, other than that shouldnt be hard. Should take less than half an hour from start to finish.

helpful hint befor you take the latch off put you some marks down so you can put it back in the same place. saves on aligning time
