T6 front upper grille removal help

[Dan]

Hi, has anyone any ideas, information detailed drawings or video on how to remove the T6 front upper grille ? I recently purchased the sport/carra T6 grille from a company and asked them to fit it for me along with several other upgrades. All work was completed except for the grille change. I was told they couldn't do it as they hadn't done it before and didn't want to break anything (clips fixings etc). As I understand the front bumper needs to be removed to gain access to the fixings to enable the upper grille to be removed. Any help would be greatly appreciated... cheers

Hi carlg thanks for your help I'll try and find the video. Can I ask how much the main dealer charged for doing it?

So the bumper needs to come off to remove the Main Engine Grille (Upper) ?

 

[Pauly]

Yes it does the upper grille locates onto the top rear of the bumper

I read elsewhere that there were top retainers and the bottom pulled out with some force. I trust this was wrong.

It just clips on the top of the bumper, Take the bumper off first.
