Replacing front grille?
« on: April 26, 2011, 03:23:05 pm »
How easy is this? Got myself one that has no reg plate holes so was wanting to stick it on this weekend.

Is it a full bumper of job or can I do it without all that hassle?

either way is there a guide or instructions?

Thanks

Easy peazy, just lift your bonnet grab a posi-drive under the 2 bolts on the top and the undo the 2 just under the plinth were the plate sits. It is then loose, just pull the tabs forward at the top and lift out.  :happy2:

Excellent cheers, just pulled out of the one I was going to buy as it also has a debadged top grille, which is now good for me as I still want my VW an GTI badges :(

Back on the hunt I go.
