This is a terrible Jet Washer I found on my dad's side of the garage.
It has nothing on Ben's Karcher... :(

I've had a bit of a fiddle today and managed to get the Fog Light surrounds off.
However I taking the small 'Ford' grill out it has clips on the bottom that I can't reach from the gap where I took the headlight out from. So what method did you guy take yours off with?

Here's a couple of pic's to help explain what I mean...

I've got a bit of it up either side...

I think I just used a long small flat blade screwdriver to push the hidden clips

Very fiddly though!

I had a go with a screwdriver, but I was getting a bit annoyed and thought it was best to walk away. Did you prise it up from the outside of the car, or reach from inside the bumper?
