NC Remove Grille

Postby spotted » Fri Aug 26, 2011 7:25 pm

Time to change the Pod filter (Mazdaspeed CAI fitted).
Does anyone know how to remove the grille to access the filter?
I am hoping that the grille can be removed. I didnt fit the CAI so have no idea how it went it.
Thanks.

You'll have to remove the front bumper. Quite easy. See Diagram. Email me (link below) for a PDF instruction sheet.

Thanks JBT, I found your instructions this morning and was a huge help.

Took 2.5 hours from start to finish. Taking off, changing filter cone, putting back together.

I decided to remove the wheels which helped a lot in getting to all those plastic clips.
Cheers
