Fit In Five Steps

How to replace a Volkswagen Cabrio Grille?

1.Locate the Volkswagen Cabrio Grille Top

First, you have to remove the grille from its seating in the front of the car. Open the bonnet so you can access this part, which will usually require attention from the top of the vehicle. There may be a cover or some kind of protector strip in place over the grille, which you will need to remove before going any further.

2.Unbolt the Volkswagen Cabrio Grille

Take time to locate all the bolts that hold the grille in place. These may need spraying with some WD40 or other liquid lubricants to help get them moving. Next, choose the appropriately sized spanner or socket head and use this to take all the nuts off the top of the bolts. Put them somewhere safe when you have finished this part of the job.

3.Remove the Volkswagen Cabrio Grille

It should now be possible to remove the grille from its seating in the car, which will require a little maneuvering to detach it from its holding position. When you have completely removed this part, next compare it with the new part to ensure you have the exact fit for your car.

4.Slot-In the New Volkswagen Cabrio Grille

Next simply replace the old grille with the new grille by reversing the removal process. It may well be that there’s a need to slide this part in place and click it into position, this should simply require a modicum of precise effort and action. Make sure that it is firmly in place before proceeding to the next step.

5.Bolt in the Grille & Testdrive

Retrieve the bolts from their resting place and use them to fix the new grille in place. It may be advisable to take care not to push them too far into the car’s bodywork as the holes may be made of aluminum or even plastic that could shear and break if an excessive amount of force is used. When you have finished the replacement work, take the car for a test drive and if there is any kind of rattling or knocking sound coming from the grille, this probably means it is not correctly seated in place. Take the time to inspect it again and ensure that all the bolts are tight enough and the part is properly fitted in the car’s bodywork.
