gearbox mount requires the battery tray to be removed iirc but thats about it.
ECU is the other side, forward of the upper engine mount.

That ECU looks like it's been off before. Should be easy to remove it then.

ah thanks edward, so i dont have a stupid anti tamper nut then, should it lift up and out the way after that 1 nut is removed, enough for me to get a chain around mount, or will unplugging the connectors and removing the ecu out the car be better,
Thanks

Should give you plenty of room after you undo that nut without needing to unplug the ecu  Done a few!

No problem, much easier without the anti tamper nut that you don't seem to have!

The ECU and bracket get removed, the ECU might be held onto the bracket with a security nut/bolt but as you remove ECU and bracket together it's not a problem.
