how to take off the grille 97x

[gensic11]

Ok I bought a billet grille from boominXplorer and it's on its way but i have no information on taking off the stock grill.. Im going to have to cut it out in order to place the new grille in position.. does anyone have any directions on how to take that piece off so i can cut out the factory grille and install the new one?

Basically lift up the hood and start undoing screws and pins That's my piece of eternal wisdom

You may have to remove the turn signals to fully remove the grille.

I have done it a few times.
Tou remove the parking lenses with the two screws on top, the plastic trim above the grill, and then take out every screw you can find. I think there are about four for the grille itself. After that, you pop the clips by pulling outward.

Go to this web page http://www.streetsceneeq.com Pick grills from the top selections. Just enter your year and brings up your choices. Pick the .PDF installation shortcut and it brings them right up. Mine was dead on accurate, love the grill. Only had one problem with mine. The lower clips popped off the grill and stayed in the truck so I had to push them through and listen to where they fell. No biggie. I even took advantage by painting my grill surround. Hope this helps!
