It's extremely simple, all you do is melt off the old grille and then crew on the new one!

there are no screws for the SS inserts...you cut off the stock grille (if you have a dremel or something to grind down the molded rivet-looking things holding the stock grille in place), but ive heard of people just ripping the stock grille off (which would probably work just as good). the SS inserts attach with a few mean little spring clips. once on, those puppies wont move. email me if you want further details....intall time for both might take you an hour once you get the hang of it

mine was a pain in the fukkin ass! the clips were way to small i had to pry them open little bit, and the hood latch route is a little tricky, maybe not such a pain in the ass but very time consuming

With the Street Scene grill inserts a hood latch cable kit comes included. Very easy to install.
You do have to take off the bumper if you have a tranny and/or oil cooler. Very easy. The clips are made to be tight. If they weren't someone could steal them easily. I added some cable ties on the inserts to keep someone from just yanking them out of the grill.

What Year,,? With the 02 there are 2 bolts on the top of each side that you can see when the hood is opened. Thats all the bolts,(4). Underneath are the plastic buttons that hold the splash guard material to the lower bumper valance. That's it.
