[Roadsters] Since it is so quiet...and bloody wet

 You can use a hairdryer to warm up the hose to make it more flexible. You might wnt to put the hose on first then drop the radiator in. Others take the radiator supports off, put everything together and then drop it all back in. It can be a struggle with the fan shroud especially.

Rain all weekend and water seepage into my basement. I did nothing with either 
Roadster. :-(   I did start the remodel of the basement at least a year early 
while cleaning up the water damage!

Sooo, anyway, here is a Roadster question for any and all of you:

When you are putting on your lower radiator hose. HOW THE HELL DO YOU GET THE 
HOSE TO GO ONTO THE LOWER PART OF THE RADIATOR? Sorry for the yelling bit.

It took me close to a half hour to get the lower part of the hose on. Loads of 
cussing, a couple scrapes, and a bruised hand later, I finally get it on. (BTW, 
it was a new hose and thus had no flexibility.) Since I have very big hands, I 
could not really get my hand in any where.

I am just curious as to how any of you deal with this.
