2015 Grill Removal

Hey,

I'm going to plasti dip my grill but can't figure out how to get the grill out. I have removed the 2 screws and the 3 plastic pins. What else needs to be done to remove the grill?

Thanks,
Peake

 

There should be some plastic clips at the bottom holding it into place.

 

I have a 2014, it has 2 bolts and 4 plastic pins. Nothing else holding it on.

 

2 bolts and 4 plastic clips. Once those are out, just pull straight out towards the front of the truck.

 

On my 15, after you take out the screws and pins on top, there's several tabs on the bottom edge. Get behind it and try to force them out. They're kind of a beyotch so you have to be a little forceful.

 

The bottom clips DO NOT need to come out. They have nothing to do with the grill. Just the 2 bolts on top plus the 2 or so plastic rivets on top. After that, grab the grill on the edge beside the headlight and pull straight out towards with with force. It will pop out.

 

I have a write up on a grill mod. Just follow the instructions for removal.
