Actually, I accessed it from the side and broke it free and then stuck it through the fan blades and spun it out from the front and reversed it to re install.

I was able to find a set of wires for $30 at checker which included the metal boots. Not sure why you pay $100 for Bosch or Beru, just my 02.
