Any tips on taking these fookers off without breaking them? I put my 500 grilles on toady and broke one taking it off and cracked the other putting it back on Also they never went back in correctly they seem to pop out in one corner....worn metal clips?? Any suggestions how to remove and fit these fookers without them popping out would be greatly appreciated

you should have two ( Z ) shaped metal clips. i think these clip on to the indicator just holding it away from the fog light this keeps it tight in it's recess in the bumper had mine off a while back if i get a chance i will check
