    Hey,

    I've made great progress with the Prius. I installed the blue LED's on the interior and man oh man do they look great. Will post pictures when i get a chance to clean and wax the exterior, as well as install the grille.

    Speaking of which

    I bought a bolt-over chrome billet grille and had some trouble installing it. I need to gain access to the area behind the factory grille so that I can hold some nuts in place while I bolt in some screws. SHould I go from top or bottom? It seems like going from the bottom would be better- I only need to remove the plastic undercarriage thing. Anybody done this already?

    Remove the top cover. It is held in by those plastic fasteners. Pry up the center part about 3/8" then pull the fastener out. About 6 or 7 of them hold it in place. Be careful with the fasteners as they can break! Hal
