Help please! - lower front grill removal

TTDegs · 31st August 2006, 00:47

As per my earlier post, one of the things I've got left to do is to fit the laser / radar detector unit for my snooper*, and the only real option looks like being behind the front honeycombe grill.

From what I can make out by crawling underneath / gently pulling and pushing / loosing skin from my knuckles, it [b]looks like it's held in place with a bunch of poppers.

But I don't really wany to pull too hard, cos I'm guessing it would be a couple of quid to replace if it's actually bolted on somehow...

Anyone got any bright ideas please?

* without wanting to get into the whole speeding issue, lets just leave it that I do a lot of motorway miles (about 25K per year) and I want to keep my license the way it's been for the last 18 or so years - points free.

I hope that this helps; it's for fitting fog lights; but pretty much all of the front comes off.

I only remember it well because I really wanted the fog lights and got really excited.

Opened the thread, passed out for a bit looked at my car and decided that the plastic caps were nice really!
