It is not the radiator that is the issue, it is the supporting cross bulkhead.

When I did my own in 2008 (on the Roadster), the Vano hydraulic assembly came right out. There are production variances so the engine placement will be a little different on each car.

I have done four of these 'repairs'. Two came right out, two needed some help. One person jacked up there engine for the clearance. One loosened the front cross structure.
