Default Grill swap q...this should be really easy, but please enlighten me

so last night I tried to pop out my stock grill to put my shiny new S4 grill in...I know I should just have to pop out the clips and the grill should pop right out, but the clips seem to be pretty tight on there and I was having a tough time popping the grill out...do you guys who've done a grill swap have any tips for doing the swap (i.e. popping the stock grill out and popping the new grill in?) thx in advance...

Default force, use it, when you think you used enough, use some more, also a flathead screw driver used with

care can be helpful too

Default start in one of the upper corners. push tab in and pull out, once you get it out a bit, undo the

clip on the side, then you should just be able to work your way along the top.

Default b6 seems to feel like your going to break something. TIP

but in fact its no more difficult. Here's tip: put a blanket or something down so if you pop the grille out it wont get scratched up.
