How to Remove Front Grille 2007-14 Toyota FJ Cruiser

Hey friends. It's Lynn, here at 1A Auto. Today I'm working on a 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser and I'm going to show you how to take off a front grill assembly. It's going to be a very simple job, and I want to be the guy that shows you how to do it. If you need any parts, you can always check us out at 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

We're going to go ahead and take off the grill. There's a couple push clips. We've got one here, one located on this side. Then, there's some located down in the bottom area there. Okay? I'll see if I can get my hand down right here. All I'm going to do is try to lift up the center area. There we are. Grab it and lift it up out of there. That's what it looks like. When you go to lock it, you just press this in and it pushes these tabs out. Okay?

Set that aside. Might as well start on one end here. Here we are, same as the first. I'm just going to come along. There's one in the center. There's a little clip right here, this one to get the grill off of here we're just going to slide it. But, don't worry about that yet. Come over here, lift that up. Another clip. There we are. Cool.

Okay. 10 millimeter. 10 millimeter. That's what it looks like, a little rusted. Not worried about it. Another one, same as the first.

Now, we've got a little clip right here. What you do for these, there's a little tab on the left side. Push that, okay, and the push that, there we are. Come along this way, do the same thing for this one, give that a little push. Okay?

You're going to need a little hook tool. Right down there is a little white clip, little white clip, and all the way over there, there's another little while clip. So, I'm just going to go ahead and stick it in here, push that out. See if I can get this one. I'll show you what these clips look like. That's what they look like right there. Nothing too special about them. I mean they're very special, not offending any clips out there. There we are.

Now, we've removed our grill assembly.

All right, so we've got our grill. We want to make sure all of our push clips are in. We've got one here. I've got two more. One goes right here, one goes other on this side. Cool. We'll get everything lined up. These long prongs go inside the bottom holes there. Then these little clippies go in the top one. Just give it a little bonk, bonk, bonk, bonk. Cool.

Two screws. Get them get started. Awesome. Got our push clips. Okay. Get some down there, grab those ones in a minute, come right up along the top here. Three clips left. Three holes left. Just going to get it lined up here. One, two, if I can get my hand in here. Looks good. Okay. Tighten these up. Perfect.

We'll clean up our mess. Good to go.
