If you take the belly pan off can you reach up with a long extension and just undo the bolts that hold the grill in place? IIRC there are 4 or 6 small bolts... -Curt

I bought a used Grill Shell w/Insert so I can break up the original one and hopefully get the hood latch to release. There's a pair of fans for the AC condenser but it looks like there's enough room to work with. So i am wondering if there's any creative ways to break open the grill element? I think I can get the chrome surround off once the insert is opened up and then will have enough room to reach the latch & release it.
