Getting rid of the grille surround piece.
1. Remove the jack bar over the radiator

2. Eliminate the screws (They are plastic so I would certainly make use of a hand screwdriver and also not power) from the plastic radiator cover
A few of my screws wouldn't loosen, so I used upward pressure with a flathead screwdriver and also it worked on a lot of them. I damaged one off even if I couldn't get it out. When I placed the screws back in, I simply utilized hand stress as well as I didn't need to utilize a screwdriver. I could have to change these with metal screws!

5. Currently below is the biggest discomfort. Under the Grille surround you have a plastic shroud that's hung on by plastic pins that go in easy, yet not out very easy. I made use of a flat head screwdriver as well as removed both from the sides that affix to the fender. The pins may obtain a little ruined yet I was able to recycle mine.
You just have to eliminate two from each side. Don't eliminate the pins that are in the center of the surround. These were a HUGE pain in the ass for me. I ended up mutilating my pins and scraped up my bumper a little. I did not like this step one little bit! I was able to place them back in ok.
6. Under of the grille border someplace in the middle you will certainly see 2 lengthy pieces attaching the bottom of the grille surround to a part of the framework. It's held on by a clip you must have the ability to press to launch.

2. Once it's remove you require to eliminate the FORD oval and place in on the new grille (Note: Mine came with an oblong, so I avoided this step).
3. I then included more lube to the new grille item so it's very easy to install back on the grille surround.
4. Check to make sure all clips are snug before putting the grille border back on the vehicle. Do not what to take it off once again.
Put back all components in reverse order.
This was a little much more engaged than I thought it would be, however the outcomes are worth it. I'm not looking foward to doing it once again when I place my haze lights behind that grille! Thanks to Brett (Up N Fires) for the directions as well as the amazing looking grille! Do not hesitate to PM me if you have any kind of inquiries.
