    Hi guys,

    How hard is it to remove the grille on a S/V40? Friend of mine has a '99
    S40 T4 and he wants to change to the egg-crate grille that's on the later
    models (not the latest one). I've only removed grilles on my 740, which is
    a 10 second job with no tools required. Are S/V40 grilles as easy to
    remove?

  2. There are some small bolts on the backside of the grille. It's a fairly
    simple job to remove the grille.

  3. Right, it is a very easy procedure... Just open the hood and release 4
    bolts, that's it.

    I didn't get the egg-crate grill but I painted an original one, which I
    think looks pretty good:
