Removing front grill when A-bar fitted

Has anyone managed to remove the front grill when you have an a-bar fitted? If so can you take some photos of whatever it is at the bottom of the grill I need to release so I can flush out the radiator? Craig

Hi Craig, I don't believe there's anything at the bottom of the grill which needs to be released, it's 4x at the top:



and then to two clips halfway up on either side

Oh and you'll need to release the A-Bar straps:

Then with a little pressure to push the A-bar a tad forward, you should now be able to lift the grill clear. LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.

Thanks, it was the middle clips (2nd pic) that I couldn't find. Craig
