      • This will allow for an easier removal of the grille and prevent damage to the device during the replacement. If you do not have access to a heat gun, a hair dryer works as well.

      • Once the clips have been released, the only thing holding the grille on is glue.

      • Reheat the device to warm up the glue if there is difficulty in removing.
