Hope someone can help with installing my front grill badge. I got my 2010 Cooper S on Saturday and I found some instructions online along with the ones that came with the badge. I was able to remove the four pins along the top of the grill no problem. I found the two tabs on lower left and right side, and when I pushed them in and pulled it seemed like the whole grill wanted to pop out but something was still attached in the middle. I didn't force it because I was afraid to break it. Are the 2010 models somehow different on how to take the grill off?

Thanks in advance for any help!

I replaced the stock screws that come with the the grill badge holder for the types of screws that are used on guitars. That way I just had to pull back a bit and I could tighten them by hand. The screws costed me like $2, well worth it.

 

I can't even figure out how to get the grill off...
