Default Mk6 Fiesta powered steering

Hi everyone, changing the rack on my Mk6 fiesta zetec it's the most awkward thing I've ever done on this car haha. Wondering if anyone has done this before and could give me some advice? Cheers Chris.

10mm bolt on column inside (make sure steering wheel straight ahead)
Front subframe needs dropping, engine steady mount from bottom of gearbox off.
Anti-roll bar links off.
Pipes off from rack. (replace O rings)
Meant to remove exhaust from cat but you might not need to. (Don't think I have bothered in the past) just remove the insulator from subframe (exhaust rubber)
Swap heat shield.
Wheel alignment when all done.
