I didn't want to spend money on a pry tool, and the flat-head screw driver was a nightmare for me. Maybe I'm a complete idiot, but I was scratching up the original grill really badly trying to get a variety of flat-head drivers in there just right.

So, I relied on my favorite and the most adaptable tool of all time... a coat hanger from the local dry cleaners.

I cut off the cardboard and bent the end up into a hook. The hook slips under the clip and you just pull the hanger towards you and the grill pops right out. I think I spent 30 minutes with the screw driver and got 2 of the clips... I switched to the hook and removed both grills in under a minute. Haha, give it a try. There is no risk of damaging your original grills either :biggrin:
