LE5 LZ4 LAT LY7 ABOVE are referred to as rpo CODES and can be found in your glove box or trunk..... it is a classic. guess 2008 they made 2 versions. 2.2L LS. dont think i am gonna do it myself now. large pc of ice fell off a semi and my daughter ran over it. thought just the radiator was damaged and it wouldnt meet dedictible. after further inspection it looks like there is more damage than i thought. thanks everyone for the input. if it isnt too much hassle, could u post the instructions anyway bud? if its a long type, dont worry about it. if you need the code, i can go look it up.
