Subject:Removing South African Grill
From:Anthony L. Mourkas
Date:Sun, 7 Nov 1999 19:48:31 -0500

I need to remove the South African grill on my 84 Westy to access the
radiator coolant bleed screw.  The SA grill just pops on and off without
the screws that turn 90 degrees on the regular grill setups.  Mine is on
wicked tight and a little gentle prying with a paint scraper didn't do
the trick.  Before I use some more muscle and possibly crack the thing
does anyone have some tips to offer?

Thanks,

Tony
