Front or back? You mean remove to get access to something?

I just took the back duct out for inspection this weekend, and it was 8 small sheetmetal screws with hex head (I forget the nut driver size). It was a piece of cake to get out, now getting back together took a few more minutes of patience.

I need to find a way to remove the FRONT ducts. I know it will prolly involve removing the access panels in front and the under the front fascia

I never found an easy way. I took off the bottom access panels and still had to muscle them out...bent one.

I pulled the front wheels and then the inner cover. Easy enough and the ducts came right out.

I believe if you raise the headlights and remove the three screws (two on inside/one on outside) holding on the black cover/surround yo uwill be able to reach in there and work with them.
