Trying to change my radiator. What are these metal hoses connected to it?

Youre looking at the left and right side of the radiatior in an 05 Coupe. I took the fan off and disconnected everything. The only thing left are these metal hoses and whatnot. I can't figure out how to get them off, I dont even know what they are. Any help?

Ever think of referring to the FSM?

Those are the lines to your A/C condenser I believe and you don't need to take them off. Just unbolt the screw holding them down to the firewall. I think there are two small bolts in the front of the radiator that holds the condensor in place to the radiator. I changed my radiator about three years ago, so my memory is a little iffy.

The ATF cooler lines are on the bottom of the radiator and held on with clamps.

This is it man. The condenser attached the the radiator made it look like one solid piece. Forgot that condenser needed to be unbolted. Thanks, problem solved
