Is it easier to install the bi-xenon HIDs by removing grill assembly?

I'm going to tackle the HIDs installation tomorrow for my heads. I haven't really looked into it, however is it the preferred way to remove the grille assembly to install these or can it be done without doing so?

Any other tips would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks! Where did you run your wiring? In addition, where did you install the harness? Just looking for any suggestions/tips

Thanks

technically, yes it would be easier to do it with the grille off.

plausible? no. all you should need to do is remove the corners. taking the grille off is a waste of time compared to what its going to save you.
