Yeah, just remember that the little centre inserts of the round clips securing the grill at the top that have the "X" on them & look like phillips head screws are not in fact screws, but simply "christmas tree" clips. Just pry upwards on the edges with a flat blade screwdriver & they'll pop right out.

Better worded as "You probably will need new clips, and they can be found at Lowes...."

I destroyed mine taking off the grill... but Lowes had some better ones that I can remove and put back in a couple times over... well worth the $2.00
