Can anyone please tell me how to remove the front grill fron a 95 M reg 3.0td.
This is how far I got before chucking it in.
1. Remove Side lights.
2. Removed and broke 3 retaining clips as expected..yes just 3
The problem starts here.. There are 3 large black plastic holders on the bottom of the grill. They look like arrows going into a housing which is fixed to the panel behind. Do these arrow shaped locators/guiders just pull away or do you have to remove the brackets from the panel from inside the engine bay. I say this because when all the clips on the top and at the ends near the side lights are released the grill still seems very tight to remove. perhaps Im just being a little to carefull and a good *"$$**g wack with the hammer should do it..not.
By the way Im just trying to replace the o/s headlamp!
