Default cooling fan removal

What's the consensus here, remove this fan from the bottom or top?

Bottom. I think also the first year 2005 it was a little more difficult and they changed the housing the next year to make it easier to get out. I think also if you can undo the upper radiator housing mounts and push the radiator toward front of car a little it helps clears the ABS stuff on drivers side.
