Hello,

Thank you

Very easy.......open your bonnetand look for the clips at the back of the grill, use a flat head screwdriver to prize the clips out.......two minute job. :smiley:

Had some top screws on mine! Also the side pieces under the headlights are tricky!

I should have added that those thin sections have clips on the bottom edge. You have to slide a thin bladed srcewdriver in and find where they are then release them!
