Useful tutorial mate!
I might try it when I get some, but it'd take me and my incompetance about 5 hours. Might just get someone else to do it.

Also, regarding Halfords & resprays, they couldn't find the paint code 'LS5T' when I gave them it. Was this the same in anyone elses case?

If the only checked in Seat it won't come up, try searching in Volkswagen or Audi. All use the same codes obviously but can sometimes be categorized in the wrong one ;)

Close-up photo

Does anyone have a close up photo of the side grills (next to S Badge)? Looking for a picture from the back showing the clip situation. Hoping it will make it easier for me to remove the old ones (not wanting to take the whole bumper off).

My first post (living in Germany but not German).

Looking at doing this, but don't really want to replace the two upper grills as they have the chrome surrounds. Will the lowers in honeycomb look off odd compared?

This not clear enough like? :shrug:

Upper grills.

Step 2. Remove the 4 torx screws under the bonnet and pull the top of the bumper forward, this will allow you to get your hand in and push the old ones out.

Step 3. Wedge the screwdriver in around the sides and wiggle the beast out. You can stick you hand in the back and push to help it out.

Step 4. Fit new grills, reverse of removal - align the holes and clips, push hard till it clicks.
