I am not very good working on cars. I have never replaced a headlamp on any car. However, after reading this thread, bought the recommended lamps from Amazon. The manual says that the first thing to be done is to take the grill off by pushing the four tabs down and then pulling the grill off. Well, I have failed miserably at the first step. I have pushed the tabs down and top part of the grill came loose. However there is something to which the bottom part of the grill is attached. Can anyone please provide instructions what to do next to take the damn grill off? Thanks...
You just need to yank the bottom part out, don't be scared. But at the same time, don't haphazardly do it and scratch the front bumper. The attatchments to the bottom of the grill are on the lower outside edges... So grip those two areas and yank. I also recommend a towel placed on the bumper, especially when you're removing the headlights. The headlamps are heavy and one can scratch the bumper. And... When you pull up the tabs to remove the headlamps, pull on the outer part of the light first, then the inner part and it'll slide out easier. It's not that hard tp get the grill and lights out, just take your time!
