Oh yeah no problems at all. Pop the hood, reach from behind the grill clips in with about 5 or 6 latch type catches. Just be alittle on the delicate side and all will flow awsome. Then just slid the new one in from the outside and push till everything catches. Done, 5 to 10 minutes tops!

Sounds like the same deal on an E36. Glad to hear it worked out ok. Thanks for the update!
