Grille Instructions
Couldn't remember the name of the thread, so, I decided to post the instructions independently. Here's the scan from the manual for removal and installation of the SVX Grille. If there's enough interest, I'll post the JPEG in the how-to locker.

Man, that sounds tough. Even though it's that simple, I'll screw it up

Mat, I agree, this looks mostly like a 'luck' deal. What are "paels"? I'd like a 97 grill, I think it's gona be a while

Randy.
Have you done this? Easy or difficult?

I've had mine off, it's pretty easy, just keep a little outward pressure on the grill, while sticking a screwdriver down into the top clasps, once the two top clasps are loose, tilt the top out while pulling up(as the bottoms just slide down into a gromet) and it should pop right out.
Hope this helps,

I haven't had mine out . . . yet. I'll have to defer to those who have. John Hoffman (svxcess) and myself are going to do a "Grille Changing Clinic" at "Snowshoe II" in Canaan Valley WV. He has changed his from "waterfall" to "97" back to "waterfall" again, so, I'm going to rely on his "expertise" to help me change mine. Only then, will be feel confident enough to advise others. Thanks huck -- now, when is the "5-Speed Changeover" Symposium?

I've been in danger of losing my middle finger many times . . . while driving.
I'm looking forward to the test drive -- now, if my wife will just stop scheduling my weekends for me.
