Mustang Grill Delete
I'm installing the Mach 1 Grill Delete on my '04 GT and was wondering if anyone has any instructions?? Anyone install it and have a website w/ some pics or a guideline???
I ordered my kit from MustangTuning.com and didn't receive any instructions or hardware. I just received the 2 plastic pieces and the pony. I've heard some people have been using double-sided tape but I'd rather stay away from that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!!!

RE: Mustang Grill Delete
I don't have one but,I bet you use the stock 2 bolts where the buper cover meet the radiator. i do know that removing the screws along the bottom of the mesh are a pain, their are clips keeping the screws from comming undone. you'll need a screwdriver to open the clips up then unscrew the blots. the clip are made of metal

I did it, I have no pics of the install but I'll try to explain it. BTW, I highly suggest the 2 sided tape.
1. remove the screws on top holding the old grille in place and remove the black plastic caps that are with the screws. KEEP THEM, YOU WILL NEED TO REUSE THEM!
2. Then remove the same things on the sides of the grille, there is one on each side. DO NOT LOOSE!
3. pull the old grille back (you will need to pull pretty far to get the wrench in there. the wrench is 7mm, make sure you don't pull too far back though.
4. remove the grille.
5. Then remove the inner grille.
6. Install the new inner grille, now you can reuse the plastic caps with the screws to hold the new inner grille in.
7. Give the section behind the old grille a wipe down (I'm sure there's alot of crap built up in there.)
8. Set the outter section of the grille where it needs to be and then remove the peel off the 2 sided tape. Get the two plastic caps put back into place with the new outter grille under them and press down on the 2 sided tape making sure that it's down, then put the 2 screws back in.
9. put the pony on attacting it to the inner grille with the 2 screws that came with the kit. (the pony hooks onto a hook on the inner grille and then gets screwed down.
Thats it, I think you should be able to do it with those instructions. If you come into a problem send me a PM and I'll be more then happy to help you.
