Default AUT Cooling Plate Install Advise

Hi all. I just received my AUT Cooling Plate, bought from Import Tuning Garage. They told me they won't have it till 2 weeks later, but here it is, got it today. and thx to Justin to tell me that store.

Anyway, now I need some advises on installation. I read the DIY post and unfortunately all the pics are gone. I'm wondering, do I have to take all the OEM part underneath then put the cooling plate on? Or I just just unbolt and bolt on?? I did some reading in the forum said to get the max outta the cooling plate it's better to take all the OEM parts out or drill a hole. But then taken out all the parts underneath, isn't there will be a chance water splash and suck in? (I know chance will be lower than 5%, but it's a possibility. Anyway, need some advise for the ppl who has it installed.

Thanks.

I removed the stock air guide before putting mine on. It was tough to get out of there though.

All I removed was the huge plastic air guide that was there. Nothing else needed to be removed. You need to find all the clips that hold this guide in. Some are obvious, others are obscured from view. I didn't take any pictures when I did it but you can feel the clips around the edge. Get a flashlight and a small mirror and look. You will be able to see them.
