have fun.

the whole inner and outer come off at once, if u cant get the rad support bar (two bars betweeen the lights) then both gaurds come off together as one clip.

u need to take out

doors + hinges
2 x screws in door jamb
screws in inner gaurd
body bolts + mounts up the front x 2
watch out for wiring and stuff.

screws - impact driver or heat and hit it.

or if that fails the grinder.
