How do I remove front grille? ('04 Expy)
Hi,
I need to remove the front grille in order to mount a PA speaker (which is too big to slip in from the top).
Looks like the plastic grille is attached to the entire (plastic) front bumper cover/spoiler/apron assembly and they will come off as one unit
I can get to and remove all of the screws holding the assembly in except for two spots at the bottom where the assembly has two extensions attached to the chassis. There are two plastic disc-like fastener holding them together (see picture). The "disc" rotates but it does not unscrew, my question is how do you detach these two fasteners? Do I just pry it lose and not have to worry about it breaking? Or do I let it break and get new ones to snap back on later?
Or is it possible just to remove the grille without removing the whole she-bang?
Thanks in advance!
