Upper front grill

Post by Greig »

Right, how in the name of the wee man do you get the upper front grill (the one with the badge on it) off without wrecking it? I've tried very patiently to take it off but the chuffin' thing will not budge and I think I'm in danger of breaking clips etc.

Anyone? Help!!

The 4 clips situated at either end of the grill and 2 close to the centre, near the badge?

Take the headlights out and the black plastic clips in the top the bumper each behind the grill and there's 2 clips that hold the bottom in and on and u can't remove the grill without it
500mile+ to a tank £20 tax and a right laugh to drive what more do u need!

theres the clips along the top and then from what i remember two at the bottom either side of the ford badge,

I just unclipped the top ones and then wedged my hand in behind the two bottoms ones to manipulate it out. Probably not the best method or explanation but it worked for me
