5. Using a small flat head screw driver, un-

clip each snap fitting retainer on the hydraulic

prop rods. With the clip pulled out, remove the

prop rod from the snap fitting by pulling it away

from the hood. There is one per side of the hood.

You will need the help of an assistant to hold up

the hood.

6. Using a 13mm socket and ratchet, remove

the four (4) nuts holding the hood hinge to the

engine bay frame. There are two (2) on each side

of the vehicle. Then, with the help of an assistant,

lift the hood away from the car and place it on the

clean surface set up in step 2.

7. Raise the vehicle with a vehicle hoist or a

jack and jackstands. Be careful to follow

the GM lifting procedures on the C5 Corvette

due to the aerodynamic components being

easily damaged and the low ride height of the

vehicle.

8. After placing jack stands under the vehicle,

place a catch pan under the radiator and remove

the coolant reservoir cap. Then using a 1/4”

ratchet and extension, open the coolant drain

valve and allow the coolant to drain completely.

The following step shows the coolant drain valve.

NOTE: Save the coolant to reuse after the

installation is complete or dispose of the coolant

in a proper manner.
