Default What's the secret to popping the top grill out to replace w/RS4 grill? (Yes, I searched.)

On this car:

Default Flip the tabs with a flat head .. you'll probably break a couple, but who cares...

you'll never put the old grille back in

Default Little black tabs across the top, Press them down with finger or flat head. Work your way from one

side to the other. Should come right out.

Default lots of butterknives and screwdrivers

pry one part out, then jam a screwdriver or butterknife in there to hold. Move down to the next tab and continue. Its a bit of a PITA, but its pretty quick.
