The pump is in the top of the reservior, the black thing with the two wires and vacuum tube in the top of it. I highly doubt you can get it off with the bumper on.

It comes out the top, you just have to unbolt some of the metal brackets that hold things together by the hood lock and reservoir. It saves like 6-8 pounds. Take out the fkn' air pumpwhile youare at it that really saves some weight.

It's easy to take out, just took the 3 little plastic rivet things off and the other and slipped the black plastic panel out and the resevoir came out no problem.

It is much more of a PITA to remove through the top than through the bottom. The bottom gets my vote.
