Okay, so I'm replacing one of the air conditioning hoses (the one that connects the A/C compressor to the condensor), and
it has become clear (even after taking out the air filter box, dropping the front stabilizer bar, removing wire harnesses,
disconnecting power steering lines, removing the upper raditaor hose, etc) that the only way to get the new air conditioning
line snaked through the tight confines of the engine bay is to get the %$%&* radiator out of the way.

The problem is, I cannot discern how the radiator is fastened to the car! There are no visible fasteners. It seems to be resting inside
a black plastic shell. :confused:

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you.

Fasteners are on the other side of the radiator support(the plastic shell you are referring to). Remove the radiator baffle cover (Square plastic held on by 4 10mm screws) in front of the radiator to get a better view.
