Lock carrier procedure question

I'm in the midst of this for the first time and a bit stumped at the step that says:
"pull the bottom of the intercooler ducting towards you - the top should come down and off."

I'm not sure if this is passenger side, drivers side or both? Can anyone clarify where the disconnection needs to happen?

Thanks!
Both - The intercooler has to be disconnected but the intercooler itself stays attached to the carrier.

Also, the bolts or tools that you put in to support the carrier stay on while you slide it forward. All the other bolts are disconnected. You may be able to find some vids on youtube that show the process of sliding it forward.
