easy repair with the exception of the rod boot Oetiker clamp. i just left them off and will get the dealership to install tomorrow.

Glad to hear you got it finished! and nope I didn't remove any plastic panels, I too used a big ass crescent (38mm is not readily available)

As far the clamps, I CAREFULLY loosened them with a flathead, so as not to deform the clamp too much, then I literally just put them and the boots back on and used vice grips to tighten the fuckers down.


However, someday probably in the spring my OCD will get the best of me and I will replace both oetiker clamps with new ones
