Front Grill on s2

Post by craigs135s » Wed Apr 25, 2007 3:43 pm

I am going to change one of the small grills on the front of my s2. Can someone tell me how to get it off? Can you take it off if i remove the middle grill or is it clam off?
Cheers

Err, not much help, but the big middle grill comes out easily, by releasing the clasps at the top.
I couldn't work out the little grills at each side - one of them was starting to tear through the bodywork whatever way I tried shuffling it.

IIRC they're held in with a screw which is accessible if you pop out the indicator (careful now).

Edit: Might be hard to reach that way, could be you need to drill a hole in the clam in the front angle of the of the headlight after removing the cover.

:? My memory is going, try the indicators first. If that don't help, I'll take a headlight cover off and take a pic of the hole for you

Had a look at mine last night, the small grills are held in with one hex head screw in the inside corner, you will need a small socket or 'right angle' driver to get to them.

Maybe different on later cars though.
