Default 04 Oil Pan Replacement

Hello Everyone!

I have a 2004 LS Sport Coupe that I have just cracked the Oil Pan on.

Are there any tips/suggestions any one has on removing the Oil Pan? How difficult is it?

I have read online that I will need to remove the Engine Strut Mount and "Loosen" the AC Condenser. Anything else?

I have sourced a replacement at a local junkyard for Pickup tomorrow. I am still working on cleaning all the oil off the driveway... What a DISASTER!

FWIW, I JUST had finished replacing the Stabilizer Links and Bushings and was letting the car down when I forgot to remove the other jack from beneath the car and the handle cracked the Oil Pan from the weight of the car. FML

Thanks to EVERYONE in advance for any help they may be able to provide!
