Default Remove Lower Grille

Can anyone tell me how hard it is to remove the plastic lower grille on each side of the front bumper? I looked in all of the Crossfire manuals and couldn't find instructions for this.

I don't want to break anything.

Use a flatblade screwdriver and take 'em off!

There is a hole at the outer end of each one and you use a screwdriver to push the tab over while pulling out on the grill. It's easy once you "get it" and you can (well, I can) do it all with one hand - I put the driver in, press over on it, and pull at the same time.

Of course, I've never owned an SRT.... not sure if they are any different.

This is absolutely correct. There are all these posts online about removing your bumper to remove the lower grills. Its nonsense. I have a 2006 Limited Roadster. It took me about 2 minutes to fish around with a screwdriver find the tab and remove the grill. I had to reattach the sensor (that senses outdoor temperature and has some effect on engine performance, I believe) that fits in the driver side lower front grill. Thank you Pizza Guy if you're still out there your comment is from 2009.
