dmhines,

Do you have to remove the actual light from the little bracket(RED)
that actually connects to the valance(BLUE), like below?

Excuse my run on sentence, I've had a few beers.

The entire assembly simply pushes in and snap locks from the FRONT side not the back. You don't have to disassemble anything. Keep in mind that you need to install the light assembly before the decorative cover.

Hey DM,
When are you gonna post some good pics of your ride in your garage?? I've been wanting to see the rest of that stang since I first found this thread about 3 months ago. Don't get me wrong, the front end looks great, but I'm sure I speak for a lot of people when I say we wanna see it all!

Anyhow, great work starting this trend. Of all the ones that are getting posted on here, yours still seems to look the best to me. I'll have some pics of mine up this weekend as I'll be installing on Saturday. I have an idea for something a little different in the grille area so if it works out mine may end up a bit unique. We'll see...

dmhines,
I have another stupid question.
My Saleen Grille didn't come with
the instructions, so where do you
use the four screws that come
with it?
Hopefully this will be my last question
bout the install.

Hmmm ... I don't recall mine coming with any screws ... just those cheesey clips to attach it to the front bumper cover.

11BLK5.0,
I put my CS Valance, and Saleen grille on today.
I ended up just taking the front bumper cover
off because those tabs were a pain in my ***
also. It was a lot easier to get the grille off then.
Does the Roush grille have the tabs, cause my
Saleen doesn't.

That was the worst thing for this project. I ended up prying them with a flat head screwdriver.
