    Hi Jo

    Its straight forward. I changed mine last week.

    Grip top left hand corner of lower grill with right hand and hold surrounding facia with palm of left hand. Give grill a tug and pull out in a clockwise direction. New grill just clips in.

    Hope this helps

    Yes. Thats the one.

    As i say it just unclips but remember to hold surrounding area so as not to put any undue stress on it.

    Good luck

    As above, just pull! I've swapped mine over at least 5 times now.
