sounds weird, but karate chop the grill and pop it out then wiggle it out and voila your all set... although i have it easier then that.... no fender well underliners. so i can just go under the bumper =X

OMG i have done this several times and i hate it! squeezing and busting up my hand to reach between the grill and radiator.

ofcourse i can only imagine the pain it will be to change my vrd bulbs once those get installed.

well it real easy you just need to place your hand between bumper and radiator and you twit it pop right out and the wire is long so it will come all the way up to the top so you can take bulb out! i just found this out because a rock hit my fog light and broke the whole thing out so I am now trying to figure out what i have to do to replace it
