    I'm going to lamin-x my fogs on my 2013 S4. How do I take off the fog light grills without fudging them up? Thanks in advance.

    There's a small hole in the grille. Put an allen wrench in, turn it sideways so it hooks the back of the grille and pull hard.

    is this considered a "stupid question?" because there's a thread for that.

    Yes, and no. I posted the question on the "stupid question" thread and didn't receive a response.

    Agreed. I grabbed the end of of the allen wrench with a set of pliers and gave it a good yank. It popped right out.

    Dang! The allen wrenches I have are too large in diameter. Have to do a bit of searching. I really want to get this Lamin-x on.

    Personally, I just shove something in the hole(even a bent nail) grab the end with pliers and pull.

    Works well
