    Sweet. So I've seen two conflicting ways on the removal of the grille. One is that once you remove the top stuff you can just kinda yank it off. The next is that there are snaps on the bottom that have to be removed first - which way is right?

    2 philips screws at top, 2 top push pins on right and left side, then easily pull out from the bottom. Don't yank it too hard because you could scratch the surround or bumper. That is the most difficult step but is still easy. Lay it on a blanket upside down. Remove the trim ring screws and then carefully start unsnapping all the clips.

    So no actual clips on the bottom that need removing. That's the only part I was confused about as some people did videos without doing this and just pulled them off.

    Pull the surround straight out toward you, not up.

    The legs that center it are easily broken.

    I had 4 push in clips at the bottom of mine. Not impossible to access, but I can see why people just pull them out. Still, I would think reinstalling it, they'd need to be individually placed.

    What year? The videos never had people putting them back in. Ahh well I'll figure it out when it gets here.

    2017 TRD OR. It's really easy, honestly. I wouldn't even fret. Just verify whether you have them. 4 on bottom, same as the 2 that on the top left/right.

    Man, these ebay sellers are price adjusting like crazy. 2 days ago I paid $140 + $25 s/h to motorfansclub and he now charges nothing for shipping. Still happy and will be happier when I get it Nov 17 - 21! Fingers crossed.

    Got mine tonight. Don’t have fingertips left after popping all those clips in the cold. Looks great but too dark for pictures. Came to my house in 7 days which was 2 days before the USPS estimated delivery date.
