This short and simple video tutorial explains how to remove the front grille of a Mercedes CLK. The procedure is quite straightforward. First, open the bonnet.

If you have one, use a power screwdriver to speed up the process (alternatively, use an 8 mm socket wrench). Fit an 8 mm socket onto the screwdriver.

Unscrew each bolt securing the grille. Once all six bolts are removed, simply pull the grille out from the top to proceed with its cleaning or replacement.
