Literally the only one video on KZread that explains it the right way, worked fine on my F32, took 5 minutes to take both grills off. Thank you very much!

Glad to hear it!! Appreciate you commenting and letting me and the ppl know!

Thanks for the video. By far the easiest way to do this. I’ve swapped out the f30 grill a few times now and most videos either show you by removing the bumper or starting with grill from the top. But looks like unclipping it from the side next to the lights was the way to go all along!!

Yessir! Yeah still requires some slight finessing but definitely the easiest way to go about it. Thanks for tuning in!

Good job dude! Will try that on my F30 as well.

Thanks for the tip...i'm about to get my M grilles in the comming days and I was thinking that there has to be an easier way to swap them than to remove the bolts that hold the bumper...will try this

Note to other folk, if you aren’t too fussed about the old kidney grills your removing then don’t be afraid to break the clips, however if you want to keep it then don’t be too rough.

Thanks for the video, took some force to pull all the tabs out without removing the bumper. Just pull on the each tab and keep pulling on the grille, it will pop out.

Good job there, but the only thing that matters the most is to have pianist like fingers, I mean long, thin and strong, if your fingers are like this this job is super easy.

What helped me: Have someone else apply constant outward pressure from the headlight side and start working the tabs. It only took a couple of minutes after that.

thank you

Are you pulling on the full clip or the little piece that actually clips in?

Not exactly sure what you mean here but just look at the one you’re swapping in to see what the clip looks like and use feeling and force to unclip it

Take a breather and come back at it. Make sure you’re pulling down on two at the same time if possible and remember they’re clips and think about how they work. You got this 🫡. It’s always harder than it looks lol
