 Re: How to Install Mustang Mach 1 Grille Delete (Episode #6)
both look the same when looking at them from the front with the hood closed.
If you watch the video at 1:50 the back piece Anthony is installing is the 3rd piece in the 3 piece kit, the other 2 items are the emblem and the delete plate. Take a look at the beginning of the video before he removes the stock back piece you'll notice you can see the top of the headlight assembly (or whatever the heck that thing is called), the 3rd piece is a replacement back piece that covers that up to make it look cleaner.

 Re: How to Install Mustang Mach 1 Grille Delete (Episode #6)
Mine is a little different because I have a cobra bumper which eliminates the need for the grille delete, I just basically have the pony on mine. I eventually plan on getting the new back piece that comes in the 3 piece kit because it does look a lot better with the hood up. If you can afford the 3 piece kit get it, if not then get the 2 piece.

 Re: How to Install Mustang Mach 1 Grille Delete (Episode #6)
You should start by poping your hood and removing the headlights. This is rather easy, all you need to do is pull the two pins out that hold each head light in. The headlights will then slide out with ease. I recommend using a towel under the headlights to keep from scratching ase exams the bumper. Unplug the headlight connections and sit the headlights to the side so they will not get broken or damaged. Pictured below are the locations of the headlight pins and the bumper jncia questions push pins to remove.You will notice two push pins on the top of the bumper next to where the head lights are located, one on either side of the current grill area. Use the picture above to locate these push pins and remove them, keep in mind they will be reused so dont break them.If you look on the front mcitp certification bumper at the edge of the fender well in front of the front tires you will see two screws. Remove these screws from each side. You may have to turn your steering wheel to the side to gain access to these bolts.
