Got grille on but bottled it when it came to vents.

Just had a couple of glasses of Barossa Valley's finest Shiraz....suddenly, it doesn't seem so daunting.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Hope you've been to the dealer and bought the special tool for doing the job Super............... it costs about £300 and is essential otherwise you will loose parts of the old vents down between the panels and suffer awful rattles

Bet the dealer never told you about it when you bought the new vents !!! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

nah mate, you just take the centres out with a flat head screwdriver and wack the new ones in.. they are just plastic caps.. the other tricky bit is the black lr badge for the boot, makes it look a lot better then the standard green LR one, but is one of the possible scratching body panel moments!!

yeah i think that was rruk...
i use a hair dryer, heat the badge up a bit and the gluey crap goes soft, pop the badge off, and then scrape off the black crap with something that won't scratch the paint work, then stick the new black lr badge onto the back and try and get it straight!!
