How to replace the grille of the Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Grille

Let's see how to replace the lower grille of the Ford Focus: we access it from under the bumper: we need to remove the fog lights by looking for the release lever behind each light. Press the lever and pull it outwards, after disconnecting the electrical connector. Now, accessing from the corners of the fog lights, remove the 13mm nuts and unlock the 3 upper clips, inserting a screwdriver above each clip. Lift it gently and pull it towards you. Pull the grille backwards and unhook it from the upper holes. You can find the lower grille of the Ford Focus MK1 on eBay with the code 254529795384 at the price of 20.00 euros with free delivery in 2 days. Position it and insert it into the upper hole; push it until the clips snap into place and reassemble the nuts from the fog light holes, which can now be reassembled.
