Exclamation XKR AC Compressor Replacement

ok I am a used car dealer and have a 07 XKR and the AC Compressor stopped working. the shop is telling me to replace the compressor on this car you have to remove the front grill, bumper, radiator, etc to get to the compressor. does anyone know if this is true? Id love to see a diagram with replacement instructions if anyone has that. Thanks

It's on the driver side bottom of the engine. The engine needs to be supported as the left (driver side) engine mount needs to be removed to remove the compressor.
