I know what youre talking about, Originally I had planned to pull it out...got the truck pulled into the garage,poped the hood,and started figuring where to start....From what ive read,there is quite a bit that has to come off,and some components can easily break.
Wish I could help you........

Well he--! Guess I'll have to do like you said and tape it off. I tried to remove the plastic cover that is over the grille casing top and broke 4 out of 8 of the nice little plastic screw/ gripper plugs!! Sure pisses a fella off when things have to be designed so difficult.
Thanks anyway!

Haynes outlines most of the procedure quite well. Unfortunately the grille insert is installed from the backside of the whole front piece. Haynes shows how to remove the entire assembly.
Definitely much easier to mask off everything around the grille insert. Easier still to forget about repainting the grille insert & use that time & money for something far more productive.
