installing the Altis grill

installing the Altis grill

whats up corolla crew?
i just bought the altis grill for my corolla but i am having a hard tmie putting the mesh on the grill. I called up rs and they werent helpful. They just told me to put the screws in and put it on the car. I wasnt expecting that answer so i was like ill come on here and ask. Does any one have like a DIY that i can follow. The mesh seems to be longer and it fits snug but i dont know how to put in teh screws. Can some one help me. Thanx

You could always toss the mesh that came with it and use gutter guard (several posts here if you search on it). Then you can color it whatever you want, and bend it to fit under screws easy.

so if i understand correctly, u need help with installing the mesh and not the grill, sorry cant help u with that. if u need help with installing the grill, here is how to do it

1) open the three screws on the top, two on the lights, and one in the middle

2) disconnect the three clips on the botton and the grill just pops right out

to install, do the exact same in reverse

my main problem is installing the mesh on the grill frame.

are you talking about this MESH? This is metal mesh... you need a cutter of some sort to cut it accordingly and screw it on. Trust me it is not that hard....all u need is a good cutter.

How about showing a pic of the mesh and outlining in red where to cut. Kinda like a template. Then show where to screw it on and then a final of it screwed on.

Actually jus lay the mesh on the frame... And make sure the scews will line up with a part of mesh to screw in... Then trace the mesh where to cut it and ur done ... I was so xcited when I got mine, i couldnt find pliers and used my hands to cut the mesh... big no no...
