Hi
I can't point you in the direction of the guide I remember it vaguely though.
Recently took my intercooler out to check for leaks , I split my cooler from the radiator and left radiator insitu quite simple just slide up the little spring clips holding the cooler to the radiator and it slides out .
You will need to cut black double wall plastic stuff down the sides though .
I think I loosened the head lights to be able to remove the grill you need a torch to see the screws holding the grill on they are torx head from memory there is one either side by the headlights and one in the centre below bonnet latch area.
Good luck !
