Default radiator support

i've got a wrecked 92 accord with the front end smashed but the motor is okay so i wanna replace the front end to get it driveable. i was wondering if the radiator support is bolted in or if its tack welded in place. any help?

Best way to find that out is for you to look at a new radiator at your local parts store..

The radiator support is the body sheetmetal above the radiator; where the hood latch mechanism is located. I think its bolted, but not sure. Cant get the parts drawings on-line for some reason...

Its definitely bolted, but it may be tack welded too. I hear of a lot of people replacing them themselves, so Id assume it doesn't require grinding or welding.
