    Default E34 Radiator grille removal

    Can't figure out how to remove the centre grille from my 1992 (E50 engined) 525i. Have removed the screw from the horizontal plastic cover sitting behind the grille and lifted the 2 clips on the rear edge of same. The top of the grill, complete with plastic cover, moves out a bit but is clearly still attached at the bottom. Suggestions please on how to proceed.

    Default With a long screwdriver find the hole either side...

    ...behind the outer headlight, and push down with force to release the clip

    Default what you are doing is releasing the clip holding the lower grille valance piece in

    Default you need to push down reasonably hard to release the clip on either side
