Advice on removing the front grill

Post by irishkeet »

Hi all

Had another great weekend working outdoors on my van 'The Pea'

Enclosed is a photo of the front of my German import 253

Next weekend I want to take the grill off & spray/clean it up. Can anyone give me some tips on removing the grill. I removed a couple of screws and pulled it out bit, I see the headlamps are all attached by screws with springs, do I need to undo these first before removing?

Also the heads on the screws holding the lamps & grill are all rusty and Id like to replace them, any idea where I can buy these, Screwfix? or would I need a specialist shop.

Many thanks
irishkeet
