help switching grill

[05likewhoa]

i know a couple ppl here have switched out there grill, wanted to know any tips on how to undo those 4 clips that are holding the grill on without breaking them, tried to pry it open a little with a flathead but did wanna use 2 much force, its kicking my ass and it shouldnt be this hard :smash:

^^^ I took mine off to put the HID's in...it was a pain in the ass...but the way that you are doing it will work. Just takes some time.

I just took off the radiator cover and started popping out the tabs. I thought there were 8 tabs, 2 on each side, 2 top and 2 bottom

yea, take radiator cover off, then there are 6 tabs i think, 2 on each side and 4 on bottom

didnt even see the ones on the bottom, stop trying when i thought i was gonna break them, guess i'll go at it again later

Very easy to do. 4 locations have tabs, top and bottom corners. Don't pry on the grill tabs, flex the bumper around the tabs.

I took out andrews old grill and installed a new one in about 8 minutes

I'm here.

just move the bumper tabs off the grill, they are very flexible.

i was just scared to use 2 much force, didnt wanna snap them, not the best design,
