big ben 10 Posted August 10, 2009 as above, got a vr6 with nasty speaker grills i want to remove, do i just lever them out?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted August 10, 2009 yep, but do it gently from different angles with something fairly broad (i.e. not a screwdriver) there are barbed plastic lugs at each corner that need to be popped free of the dash Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
big ben 10 Posted August 10, 2009 ok thanks!! always like to double check and there wasnt anything in the search... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted August 10, 2009 you might even just pop them out with your fingers, just push from the outside to the inside from one corner to the next, mine tend to pop out if I squeeze my fingers in the gap between the dash and the grille edge Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlexDG 0 Posted August 10, 2009 I got myself a couple of sets of these for this sort of job, far less likely to mark adjacent surfaces than a screwdriver or metal rule: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAR-INTERIOR-DASH-DOOR-TRIM-PANEL-REMOVAL-PRY-TOOL-KIT_W0QQitemZ230340547999QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Hand_Tools_Equipment?hash=item35a15dd59f&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 Also good for 'exploratory' work as well because they normally bend before the panel snaps. I don't recall which seller on eBay I actually used. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
