Steps
Remove the grille
Open the hood and release the grille push clips. Pull the panel forward enough to reach its lower tabs, disengage them carefully, and lift the grille away.
Transfer the emblem if needed
Release the emblem's locking tabs from the old grille. Align it with the replacement's mounting points and press it in until secure.
Install the replacement grille
Engage the lower tabs with the bumper first, then press the upper edge into place. Reinstall the push clips and verify the grille sits flush.
Check your vehicle’s repair manual for exact specifications and fit.
