Default radiator replacement

My radiator is busted. How hard is it to replace it with the new one? Do I have to remove the clutch fan? Is there a write up somewhere? TIA

Not that hard at all I replaced mine about 6 months ago, just takes a little time but you can do it.

Just did mine two weeks ago. Not bad at all. Feel free to ask me any questions if you are stuck. It's kind of fresh in my mind.

Since it is too hot outside, I was too lazy to work on it so I brought to a mechanic friend and let him do it

Yeah, that's pretty lazy. Replacing the radiator is one of the easiest maintenance jobs you can do on our car.
