It's real easy to do and you don't need mad mechanical skills to do so.

1. Remove the headlights
2. Remove the front fascia (3 bolts each behind headlights, 3 screw by the radiator and like 6 screws under the fascia)
3. A few bolts to remove the crashbar if you a large FMIC
4. Remove the stock FMIC via like 4 nuts
5. Don't forget to disconnect the hot/cold side pipes
6. Reverse the above process

Total time like 60 minutes.

Real easy :D

Honestly I don't know unless someone up here has the QW. Sorry but give it a shot anyway. You'll learn alot by doing it on your own and you can always leave the stock one on.

steve it is real simple to do, i don't know about doing it in a parking alot. It is not hard it is just time consuming. just don't lose any of the bolts. I have done like 5 swaps allready and it just gets eaiser. I don't think i will be at the meet tonight so I won't be able to help you out steve, but it's easy.
