im planning on timing belt change in the spring. i'm thinking i might change the radiator hoses while i'm at it. i found a how-to on changing the timing belt, but is there a how-to for the radiator hoses?

still debating whether i want to tackle the timing belt myself or have the shop do it. if i brought it to the shop, they would probably recommend new hoses since they recommended new belts last time.

i'm assuming changing the hoses is a much simpler task. what tools would i need? would i need to drain the radiator fluid? if anybody has the steps laid out somewhere that would be greatly appreciated. thanks
