There are pull clips on the top panel which connect the grill to the hood landing deck. On the front beside the headlights you will see a small square shaped plastic pin - you need to turn that through 90 degrees - there is one on each side - straight blade driver dose it. Then lift up and forward.

I think that is all - I am working from memory and sometimes it's not that sharp.

Thanks for the info. I found the top clips but I could not find what was holding the sides on. I will try it again sometime this week.

There are 4 slide clips that need to be turned 90 degrees. See page 16 of the service manual:

Thanks Goblue 90, I found it. I guess I should have checked the manual.
