Default Removing EDFC

What's the best way of removing the rear motors? Since the rear is soo cramp, it's hard to get any tools in there to remove the motors and and fact that they motors had thread lock on them doesn't help very much. Has anyone had any experience removing the rear motors? Please share...

I would believe you would have to remove the fuel tank pipes. Supposedly its ez to just swing them out of the way.

I dunno if the strut bar is in the way or not but that is also easy to remove.

All assumingly that you have taken your trunk lining out already

Taking it off because I am selling it haha. Don't need any extra ones.

Does anyone know if I can motor would fit through the hole if I were to just completely remove the suspension with the the motor attached?

The motor does fits through the hole.

Now that I think about it, I believe there are two different motors depending on when you bought the EDFC. When I did the job, I installed the coilovers with the motors on them.
