How To Remove Front Grill
I am trying to remove the front grill on my 93 toyota pickup 4x4, and can't figure how to get it off. I removed the corner lights, and undid all of the snaps on the top. I saw three on the bottom that I can't figure how to undo. Any suggestions on how to undo those? Also, is there anything I missed?
How do you put the snaps back in without breaking them?

Well usually unless you are super careful one or more of the snaps will break at least I know I broke a few. You don't need them all to hold it on however. As far as removing it I can't quite remember how many snaps were on the bottom but even when those were undone on mine I had to coax it alil bit by wiggling it and it eventually came off no problem. I used a flat blade long handled screw driver to push the tabs in on the underneath ones while at the same time pushing out on the grill so they would release.

i used a flat head screw driver to get the top ones off, then just jsut pulled oit off. and i broke almost all of tehm putting it back on but it holds in just fine. so if you get take it off and then put it back oon w/o breaking any. your the man

I am trying to remove my grill to replace my right hand side headlight (Lens) on my 93 4Runner and I cant figure out what is holding it together on the bottom. Seems like its right around the bottom where the light is but I cant see anything. All the other clips came off no problem. Any ideas?

And just so you know, if you have a question you can always make your own thread instead of bumping one that's 5 years old

I figured it out everyone. I did everything right the first time but I couldn't see the tabs on the bottom of the grill under/behind the headlight. My bumper is bent up into the bottom of the headlight too so that didnt help matters but with a few whacks with a hammer (towel underneath to not damage the bumper) and I got it!!! Thanks for the advice =>
