Theres bolts on it. Take those lose. You also have the hose comming off the radiator. Take that off. You'll have to replace the gasket. Be sure to get that. Also while your in there. Check your thermometer. Use thread tape when putting the bolts back into to prevent leaks. GOOD LUCK!

any videos for replacing the radiator? I have a water pump, but the shop said the radiator was the problem. since I'd already bought a water pump, I thought I'd replace it and the thermostat when I get the radiator out.
