On the SA grille kits sold in the US, one has to remove one of the
German turn-fittings from the old grille and put it in the center of the
SA grille.  Then you're left with 4 push pins (2 per side) and one
turn-fitting.  The kit comes with no fastener in the center position.

So, to be more correct I should say, "After undoing the one 1/4 turn
screw in the center, it now pulls off with just the right amount of
resistance ... no prying at that point.
