Did you know this?

As in previous posts I have been doing my To-Do-List on my Georgetown.

While working in the engine compartment my head was getting stuck because its large. OK no wise cracks folks.

Anyway, while in there I looked and saw how the front grille is attached.
I saw 4 bolts and decided to remove the grille.
Within seconds the grille was out and I can crawl into there.
The bolts stay in place and you just lift the grill off the bolts and out of the way.
Take a look next time.
Too easy and why didn't I figure this out sooner? I have no idea.

Anyway it is something for others to try if they need to get into the engine compartment.

Sorry I should have taken pictures but didn't

See picture with the 4 dots.

Sorry for not sharing sooner.....

My bad for not posting this topic earlier. The bolts Iggy is talking about really make removing the grill much easier when you’re doing work in the engine compartment. I actually replaced the bolts with eye bolts (can’t remember what size, so take your original bolts in with you when sizing) so there’s no need for tools to remove the bolts and removing the grill.
