You need to bend back the lock tabs that stop you from putting a wrench over them.

To get the top left one (when ur looking under the car facing towards the front of the car) do you just use a 2ft extention or is there a way to do it without one.

Hopefully you left the heat shroud in good condition to back on. If not, you don't really need it either.

Well he needed to take the downpipe off right? He said he still had the heat sheild. So to take off the dp he would need to get to the heat shield too since he was having problems take bolts off. Unlike me i destroyed my heat sheild taking it off. Ever since then i havnt had a problem with it off. I don't believe anyone else really has either. Though it will help you some if you leave it on or at least put heat wrap around the dp. Maybe make or buy some turbo shield. See my point Ronin FC?
