Default How to remove the hood liner?

Need help on what you have to do to remove the hood liner, aka blanket on a 15 Stingray. There are tabs on the new one that go under the middle hood piece. Do you need to remove that piece to exchange hood liners? Thanks for your help, it's always here!

There are 3 or 4 screws that need to come out of the hood scoop piece. When you have them out, pull the trim piece off of the hood and you will release the blanket. Just pop out the big round retainers and the blanket comes right off.

Do u have to take the center piece off entirely or just loosen the screws?

Thanks! Bob
