Good Luck!!! If I remember correctly, you're gonna have too remove the whole pass. side fender and all that good stuff thats in the way just to get to it! I had to remove the whole Blower Motor Housing and from that point it seemed like the easiest way to replace the condenserit self.

You should not have to remove the fender. The condenser is in front of the radiator. If you were talking about the evaporator (what is in the HVAC housing), then yes, removing the fender would make it easier.

As far as removing the condenser, I do not believe that you have to remove the radiator. I would pop the grill out and have a look at how it is mounted. I think it is between the radiator and the core support so you will definitely have to remove the upper radiator shroud/support.
