Replacing radiator fan

Hi all. I'm trying to replace the radiator fan in my '02 MCS. I've got the modular front end unbolted and pulled forward and the two plastic pins at the top pulled out. What next? There looks to be a plastic 'strap' that is part of the radiator surround that's right behind the fan. I can wiggle it but can't figure out what to do next. Any help? Thanks!

Oh, never mind. I thought about it for a couple minutes and realized I said 'pins.' I went out and noticed that I only pulled the inner part of them . After I figured that one out, it came out easy. The new one's in and it's ready to go together again.
