unbolt it from the rack and slide it up a little (make sure u don't twist it). It should just be 1 bolt.

You need to take the bolt out of this

By green_6er at 2011-07-27


its at the bottom of this

By green_6er at 2011-07-27

after you take the bolt out hit knock it loose and you should be able to get your header in there.

its not a wing nut, there is an actual bolt in there. i can't get a good pic without jacking up the car and getting under it, but if you look its pretty straight forward. take the bolt out, loosen the shaft, puch the shaft up so you have room to work.
