    Pro grill install need a little assistance please!

    I’m trying to remove the grill on my 2021 SR. I removed the 10mm bolts on top and the push pins near the headlights. I tried shimmying the grill off but there’s still something holding it to the frame I think. I don’t want to pull too hard and break it. I removed four more push pins from the bottom but I don’t think they actually held the grill in. Here are some pictures. Are there two more push pins to remove????

    the two 10mm and the left and right push pins are all you need to remove the grille. Lift up on the 'handles' that were attached to the 10mm bolts so they are off the perch, then grab from bottom and pull straight out. That should do it. As mentioned, the four bottom pins do not hold any part of the grille in place.
