No difference really maybe slight engine noise increase and some people have mentioned more steam coming from the bonnet but I've never seen it.

Just looks a lot nicer :)

Yea quite simple really, just various tab clips holding it in. Give it a yank!

Took mine out last year, as it was starting to go rotten where the windscreen washer sprays are. It was surprisingly heavy. No real noticeable difference in sound or temps etc.
