Grill work
How do you separate the inner and outer grills from one another, i.e. on a Lariat splitting the gold and chrome sections? Looks like a bunch of tabs, any tips on getting the inner insert out without breaking anything?

What I did was bend the tips of the tabs down with pair of needle nose pliers. Then unsnapped the old grill and snap the new one in...then if needed bend the locks back into place (or just leave them out...the center wont come loose if they arent used....the snaps hold the grille in place just fine). The thing I was happy about most was how easy it was to get the grille to line back up with the hood right....it pretty much just lined itself up.
