Front Diamond Removal?!

Can be done without removing the bumper just depends on 3 things !! 1. How big your hands are 2. How big your hex driver is and 3. How good are you are at feeling and unscrewing blind ?
 
i would say if you undid the two screws and two clips along the top of the bumper and pulled it forward you would be able to get a small torx driver behind
 
yeah definately the way, be careful not to drop torx though hahaha took me about half hour to change all badges to SC badge set

So is it really just a small socket wrench job?.......As i just happen to have one of those :smiley:

Did you manage to get at it from taking the grill off and reaching in behind? As cant see your top part [plastic lining having been took off in the photos?

If this is the easiest way, how did you get the grills out?

Thanks
