    I almost messed it up big time lol
    Ill share my experience about this thing
    Hoping itll help and dont go through what i went through hahahah

    Test fit
    The holes for the screws dont fit right
    If you forced it in the grill will not aligned right to the plastic
    Made the holes bit bigger so i can movwd the grill up down side to side perfect fitting with the plastic
    I have used may soldering iron
    Just melt the plastic
    While the grill is in there
    (You dont want the holes too big)
    Then use blue loctite thread lock
    DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN
    It will bend the plastic this is a very rigid grill
    Just snag fit is enough
    I like how it looks better than the stock

    Lol its pretty easy
    Sad to say the old grill didnt survive

    But no matter it still can used since its like a sanwich being pinned by the trim
