How do I remove the lower front grill?

« on: June 04, 2018, 08:41:26 am » I can get the main grill off no problems, but i'm really struggling to get the lower front grill out... apparently it pops off? But it feels way too flimsy for me to be pulling at it. Anyone offer any help? Logged

From there, you can just pull it out Logged Ed30 Build Thread: http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,115678.0.htmlGti Build Thread: http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,78921.0.html

Is there a decent video guide or picture guide anywhere? I don't trust myself not to snap something haha! Logged
