Looks like a lot of stuff behind the driver side headlight (2.0L) to get past or move around. Much easier to remove the grille.That may only work on the v6. Turbo models have an extra fluid reservoir right behind the driver's side headlight. Looks like it may be removable. Has anyone tried this? I would love it if it works since I would have to remove my winch to remove the grille.
It was pretty tight to get behind the driver side light. i was able to remove my grill with my winch installed. If you pull both outside edges of the grill loose the center portion only needs to come out about 1/2 to 3/4 inch and then you can fully remove it. if you still don't have enough room for that you could just have someone hold the grill back so you can access the headlight bolts and change the bulb with the headlight removed.That may only work on the v6.
