Is the AC belt on? If not remove it. pull the AC compressor bracket two hex bolts, and pull the comperssor up and lay over on the passenger side. Hex, forget the size, for the bracket 13mm for the belt.

Remove the intake air tubes from the throttle body to the IC, remove the IC, remove the AMM and tubes to it. 7mm driver for the hose clamps, 10mm socket for the IC hold down bolt.

Are you going to drain the coolant properly or just dump it?

If doing in properly, since you are replacing the lower radiator hose, put a large pan that is 4 inches deep , it must fit under the car, adn 2 ft by 3 ft wide / long.

Using a hobby knife, cut the smaller hose (that goes to the turbo) and let it drain down into the pain, open the coolant res top.

After coolant has drained, Using a 7mm flex take the clamp off the radiator and remove hose, using same tool, take the small hose clamp off the tributary that you just cut and remove the remains off the metal hose.

Remove clamp at the water pump, use a long screw driver to lever the hose off the fitting. pull the hose down from below, refit the new one from the bottom. spray WD-40 in the end of the hose to ease fitting.

put everything back!

About an hour.

that 7mm flex shaft driver (and the 8mm with it too) is one of the best tools for under the hood work.
