It's clipped on to the timing cover bolts, you just have to pop it off of those thee bolts and it should come right off. :)

there's 2-3 spots where it's clipped onto bolts. Just unclip it and off it comes (assuming harmonic balancer is already off)

I broke the passenger side bracket off on mine - popped it off a little too hard and it snapped. Drilled a couple small holes on each side and we used a couple good quality twist ties to hold it together.

x2 wtf ever a "hall effect sensor" is. heh is that what it's called? I can see why I suppose. I wanna know if it's a damn magnet or not though.
