Default Noob Question - Removing PCM

I'm sending my PCM to get tuned by pcmforless. Just wondering what there is to it. Just a couple of screws or bolts? I've screwed up to much on this car this winter so far, not about ready for another problem.

There is two bolts holding it down and then you have to remove the 4 connections out of the bottom once you get it lifted out. I think they are 10mm.

2 10mm bolts on top and then pull up and out. There is not much slack in the wires but enough to pull out. 4 wiring harnesses plug in to bottom each a different color that is also marked on bottom on pcm so you cant get them wrong on reassembly. Remove red clips first, then gently remove 4 wiring plugs and you are done. very easy.

Yea good call on the red clips, try not to drop them they are just little red things. There is 2 a connector IIRC.
