Re:
Hi John,
Can you please let me know how did you remove the front grille on your Series 3 exy? No matter how hard I tried to pull, it won't come off and I gave up trying. I also couldn't see the clips holding the grille in place to the bumper.
Any help will be appreciated.

Re: Removing the grille from a Series 3.
Hi Jalal,
We have been out touring today, 500 klm round trip, just arrived back home now. You need to remove the top panel between the radiator and grille, this is only 6 scrivetts. In the upper most left corner and right corner looking from the front of the grille, is two 8mm holes. Behind these are two lock screws. Pull a little on the grille while rotating these screws anti clock about 45 degrees, you should hear them unclip. You also need to get your hand down just behind the grille where the two vertical uprights are, you will feel a couple of tabs. Push the tabs in while appling pressure to the grille outwards. You need to work one side then the other. To re install, I found it best to pull those screw locks out of the body and clip them into place in the grille, I think it makes the process easier.
Hope this helps.
Regards
John

Re: Removing the Grille Series 3
Hi Jalal,
If you click on this picture and use the zoom feature at photobucket, you can see the six rectangular areas where those clips I was talking about, go into. There are no clips going vertical, so once you pop each of these clips it should just come forward and out. A picture tells it all. Don't forget abouit the release screws in the top corners.
Regards
John

Re:
Thanks John, yep, I found/saw the rectangular slots with the clips going through them, but I didn't know about the release screws in the top corners. Anyway, I don't think I need to remove the grille anymore (at this stage) as my radiator protection was fitted for me by the guys who fitted my nudge bar yesterday when they had the front bumper off

Re:
I didn't need any silicone when I fitted the mesh on my T30 and it held in place pretty well for years with the zip ties.
