Just finished removing silver trim rings and replacing them with black ones on my 2016 Jeep GC Summit...Thanks for teaching an old man new tricks! Hope you're still around...dave H
Thanks. I just did mine this morning and dash tools work great. A few of tips to add: 1. Line up your new set (in order) so you can see where the tabs are. Avoid prying at tab locations in the set you are removing. 2. Remove all inserts before installing the new set. The grill is more pliable without the inserts, making it a bit easier to pop the next insert loose. 3. If you are also doing the two lower vent inserts, they are even easier. Pop the the two small top clips, insert your holding tool, then pop the top engine-side tab and the two bottom tabs will pop right out. The bottom outside corner looked pretty thin, so I avoided prying there (and didn’t need to). 4. Remember to have a microfiber and some detail spray so you can clean the wedged-in bugs when you’ve got those inserts off 😃
