this is for people with the Heratige grill

Hey for people that have done the heritage grill install i recently got mine from Gary Customs (very nice job by the way). I was wondering what tool did you use to take off the Six little plugs under the hood? i was looking today but wasnt 100% sure what to use. i might install the grill next weekend when i have more free time i just had a lot to do this weekend. Thanks for the responses

Yes use a flat head screwdriver all around or easiest would be to use a clip tool..
Clip tool is what i use in the body shop

Autozone, Napa, Advanced Auto, or any parts store should have them. They are usually between $5 and $10 a piece.
