How do i get the grill off my truck. I cant figure it out

its a 06 f150 with Bar style

 

There are 4 10mm bolts that hold the L-brackets from the grill to the hood. Remove those and the grill will be off your truck.

 

i did that but i couldnt get it off. I used force but was afraid i was going to break it

 

There are 6 more 10mm bolts along the top edge of the grille for a total of 10 counting the L bracket bolts.

 

ok well answer me this. I got a aftermarket grill for my truck and it has 3 threaded holes on top and 3 on bottom. Does this make sense?

 

I stand corrected. I overlooked those 6 bolts, it's only been 2 years since I took my grill off to paint it.

Pics would help. Is it an overlay or something in which it might use those threaded holes to attach it to the grille?

 

no i dont think cause it is a grill for 6" lights

 

Sounds like what you have is an insert. You will have to take the grill off the remove either by cutting or popping out the insert of the OE grill. I suggest though that you find instructions for the replacement grill. It should have all the info you need.

 

i dont see how it would even fit right?

So i need to remove the grill and cut out holes for the lights?
It didnt come with instructions ha

 

Sorry, but without more info, no one here can help. Pics of the item would be nice, or a link to it.

i see it says insert now. But it still is confusing on how it would be done

 

It looks like the type that would require the cutting out or removal of the part of the OE grille, but cannot say for sure. Might want to try doing some searches on RDX billet grilles as that is who it says makes them. Without instructions, it is very tough to say what has to be done. That is definitely not a full replacement, which still leaves 3 options. Bolt over, remove insert, or cut out partial insert.

 

So basically im gonna have to do some custom work ha

 

If you have to cut it use a dremmel. If you dont have one go get one.
