   Hi there,how do you remove the ABS unit bracket that secures it to the chassis? I've removed the 2 nuts on the side and still won't come out,the only bolt I can see that could be holding it is one underside but it's an awkward place and you would need to remove the gearbox in order to get to the bolt,am I missing something? Any help would be much appreciated.

   Jack the car up,remove the wheel that side and it may be easier to get to from underneath.
