Can anyone please advise on the removal of the following for polishing purposes?

1. Power steering fluid resovoir.
2. Throttle body
3. Turbo pipework
4. Turbo heat shield

Are these simply unbolt affairs / any gotchas to be wary of?

Many thanks
Rich

the first 2 can be off in 15mins the second 2 are much more involved, all just bolt on but there are alot of bolts :p

Cripes, thanks for the pics, how do you block off the fluid from the PAS resovoir?

i didnt i just drained as much as i needed to off, then once its all back in fill it up with the engine running moving the steering from lock to lock to bleed it

Sorry to be a dumbass but what method did you use to drain off the excess?
