Default Hints for replacing front screens
Can someone give me some hints on how to replace the front screen located in the fog light opening (drivers side). I have the replacement screen assembly and it looks like it requires access from behind the bumper to install. thanks

If you take the radiator shroud out, you will gain access to them. It's about a 15 minute job.

It can be done without removing anything, but I tell ya I really tore up my hand and arms doing it. The shroud removal might be the ticket.
